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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“If a police officer has probable cause, i.e., if he believes and has good reason to believe that a person has committed a felony, he may arrest without a warrant. State v. Baker, supra [ 68 Wn.2d 517 , 413 P.2d 965 (1966)]; State v. Biloche, supra [ 66 Wn.2d 325 , 402 P.2d 491 (1965)]. The probable cause essential to support a lawful arrest without a warrant is a belief based upon facts within the knowledge of the arresting officer, persuasive enough to convince a judge that a cautious but disinterested man would also believe the arrested party guilty. State v. Hoffman, supra [ 64 Wn.2d 445 , 392 P.2d 237 (1964)]; State v. Smith, 56 Wn.2d 368 , 353 P.2d 155 (1960); State v. Hughlett, 124 Wash. 366 , 214 Pac. 841 (1923).”
