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 27 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“a reasonable person in the suspect’s situation [would] have understood that he was in custody. If a suspect has not yet been arrested, a district court must examine all of the surrounding circumstances and evaluate whether a reasonable person in the suspect’s position would have believed he was in custody to the degree associated with arrest.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Staats · State v. Edwards“absent a showing of coercive police activity. The Fourteenth Amendment’s volun-tariness standard is identical to that employed to determine the voluntariness of a Miranda waiver. A district court assesses voluntariness by examining the totality of the circumstances. The requisite factors include the defendant’s age, maturity, intelligence, education, experience, and the ability to comprehend; the adequacy or lack of a warning; the length and legality of the detention; the nature of the interrogation; and whether the defendant was denied access to family and friends or deprived of physical needs. When reviewing a district court’s conclusion, an appellate court must make an independent determination based on the totality of the circumstances as to whether a defendant’s statement was voluntary.”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Edwards“II. Failure to make a timely objection to the admission of evidence is a bar to appeal. If the admission, however, is plain error affecting substantial rights or constituting a fundamental error of law, it may be reviewed on appeal notwithstanding the failure to object. Our test for whether an evidentiary admission rises to the level of plain error is “whether there was or was not a reasonable likelihood that any error substantially affected the verdict.””
