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

  1. “It is axiomatic that this court will not consider constitutional issues raised for the first time on appeal.”
    12 later decisions quote this exact passage
  2. “Possession of a controlled substance does not necessarily involve use. If a person is holding a plastic bag containing a psilocy-bin mushroom, he possesses a schedule I controlled substance. He does not use it until he ingests the mushroom. To use the mushroom, he must first possess it. Once he uses the mushroom, he no longer possesses it. Use and possession are therefore not identical acts.”

  3. “strict control of controlled substances in this state is necessary for the immediate and future preservation of the public peace, health, and safety.”
