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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“It is clear the investigating officers had two procedural methods for obtaining the samples from the appellant. First, the officers could obtain a search warrant authorizing them to obtain the samples from the appellant’s body. Second, the officers could have enlisted the assistance of the District Attorney General’s Office, filed a motion in the trial court seeking the entry of an order permitting the officers to obtain the samples, and both parties could have litigated the issues at an adversarial evidentiary hearing. The officers opted to obtain a search warrant. The appellant was not entitled to be present or litigate the issue of whether the officers had probable cause to support the issuance of the warrant prior to the warrant being issued.”
