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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The Office of Professional Standards is presently investigating what is alleged to be widespread use and trafficking of illegal drugs within the Bureau. Through this memorandum, I am directing all personnel to fully cooperate in this investigation. Cooperation includes, but is not limited to, appearing as directed, giving statements as required, submitting to polygraph examinations if requested and submitting to any drug screening tests deemed appropriate by the Office of Professional Standards. Failure to comply with any part of this directive will be considered as disobeying a direct order from the Commissioner of Public Safety.. Any employee disobeying this order will be immediately suspended and the appropriate charges will be preferred.”
