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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[T]he seizure of the defendant's person here occurred without any reasonable suspicion or probable cause to believe that the defendant or anyone else on the bus had violated some law, in contravention of La. Const. art. 1, § 5 and La.C.Cr.P. art. 215.1. The marijuana obtained from Vikesdal's luggage as a result of this unlawful seizure is not legally admissible.”
