Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““This Court has consistently held that the necessary predicate which the State must prove in order to introduce over proper objection the result of the accused’s breathalyzer test includes: “(1) the use of properly compounded chemicals; “(2) the existence of periodic supervision over the machine and operation by one who understands scientific theory of the machine; “(3) proof of the result of the test by a witness or witnesses qualified to translate and interpret such result so as to eliminate hearsay.””
