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 35 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. ““It has beeii consistently held in this state that possession means more than just being where the action is; the State must prove two elements: (1) that' the accused exercised care, control, and management over the contraband, and (2) that the accused knew the matter possessed was contraband . . . Therefore, there must be additional independent facts and circumstances which affirmatively link the accused to the contraband in such a manner that it can be concluded he had knowledge of the contraband as well as control over it. . . ””

  2. ““Possession of marihuana, however, need not be exclusive and evidence which shows that the [defendant] jointly possessed the marihuana with another is sufficient. (citations omitted) Mere presence at a place where narcotics or dangerous drugs are possessed does not in itself justify a finding of joint possession.””
