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

  1. “the curtilage is not a separate location wherein a burglary can occur. Rather, it is an integral part of the structure or dwelling that it surrounds. Entry onto the curtilage is, for the purposes of the burglary statute, entry into the structure or dwelling.”

  3. “[t]he courts `are obliged to give effect to the language the Legislature has used.' Cobb v. Maldonado, 451 So.2d 482, 483 (Fla. 4th DCA 1984). `Courts have then no power to set it aside or evade its operation. . . . If it has been passed improvidently the responsibility is with the Legislature and not with the courts.' Van Pelt [v. Hilliard], 75 Fla. [792] at 798, 78 So. [693] at 695. The proper remedy for a harsh law will not be found through construction or interpretation; it rests only in amendment or repeal.”
