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 26 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“If the trial court finds that a motion to return property is facially sufficient, it may order the State to respond by citing applicable case law and attaching portions of the record to refute the defendant's contention that the property should be returned, after which the motion may be summarily denied. Durain [v. State, 765 So.2d 880, 880-81 (Fla. 2d DCA 2000)]. In the alternative, the trial court may hold an evidentiary hearing.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“However, if the State is `unable to connect the items to specific criminal activity, and no one else can be identified who can demonstrate a superior possessory interest in the property, it should be returned to [the defendant] or to such person(s) as he may designate.'”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“Because consideration of a motion for the return of property is governed by procedures similar to those used in post-conviction proceedings, general principles of postconviction relief govern the necessity for the defendant’s presence. A defendant is not entitled to be present as a matter of right; however, when “there are questions of fact within the defendant’s own knowledge which must be resolved, the defendant must be afforded the opportunity to testify and cross-examine witnesses.” Harrell v. State, 458 So.2d 901, 902 (Fla. 2d DCA 1984)(citing Alfonso v. State, 319 So.2d 49, 50 (Fla. 2d DCA 1975)).”
