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

  1. “The “very limited expectation of privacy” the defendant had in the room prior to February 16, [the date of the rape] which was dependent upon the relationship between the defendant and his host, disintegrated that afternoon ... The relationship between the defendant and his host was thereby destroyed.... In sum, when the searches occurred, if he.had any remaining subjective expectation of privacy regarding his room, the defendant certainly had no expectation of privacy that society objectively would recognize as reasonable.”
