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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The conflict between the ordinance and the state statute involves a complex legal analysis and certainly did not render the ordinance flagrantly unconstitutional. At the time the deputy sheriff discovered this evidence, he was merely enforcing a local ordinance which was presumptively valid. Accordingly the evidence is admissible. 584 So.2d at 147 .”
