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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““There can be little dispute that the state’s interest in protecting the privacy of sex offense victims is extremely strong and fully justified. ‘No crime is more horribly invasive or more brutally intimate than rape.’ [Citation.]” ( 55 Cal.App.4th at p. 53 .) “ ‘Privacy’ is not an insignificant interest—it is described in our state Constitution as one of our ‘inalienable rights.’ (Cal. Const., art. I, § 1.) In the context of the victim of a sex offense, our Legislature . . . has likewise determined that the privacy interest of such a victim is significant. . . . [M]any victims are reluctant to report sex offenses ‘because of fear they will be publicly identified and humiliated.’ [Citation.]” ( 55 Cal.App.4th at p. 56 .)”
