These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. “[n]otification will clearly brand the plaintiff as a `criminal sex offender' ... a `badge of infamy' that ... strongly implies that he is a likely recidivist and a danger to his community.”

2. “[Alabama's] Community Notification Act deprives the plaintiff of rights previously held under State law. By virtue of having been deemed a `criminal sex offender' within the meaning of the Act, the plaintiff no longer has the right to establish a new residence without giving prior notice to government officials. He no longer has the right to live and work within 1,000 feet of a school or childcare facility.... These additional deprivations therefore suffice to establish the `plus' part of the stigma-plus test.”

3. “[T]o establish [a] depriv[ation] of a liberty interest in reputation sufficient to implicate the procedural protection of the due process clause, [one] must show stigma plus the alteration or extinguishment of some other right or status.”
