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

  1. “The concern over foreign substances [placed in] a person's mouth is the potential for the substances to absorb and retain alcohol in the mouth, which could falsely elevate the breath alcohol concentration.”
    2 later decisions quote this exact passage
  2. “The primary rule in statutory construction is to determine and give ef-feet to the intent of the legislature. The best evidence of legislative intent is the language of the statute itself, and all words must be given their plain and ordinary meaning unless 'otherwise indicated by statute.”
    1 later decision quote this exact passage
  3. “[t]he logical conclusion to draw from the department of toxicology's use of the word 'put' is that any foreign substance placed in a person's mouth more than twenty minutes prior to a breath test poses no problem for the reliability of the results.”
