Overruled in part

State v. Sanchez Valencia held that a challenge to a sentencing condition instead receives abuse of discretion review.
More on how this was screened

All 60 flagged citations have been read; the confirmed treatment is listed below. Riles's separate rules on polygraph monitoring and treatment related testing continued to be applied in the opinions reviewed.

Every treatment on this page is written from the citing opinion itself, with a verbatim quote, never copied from a commercial citator. A citation flagged by our screen but not shown here was read and found not to weaken this case.

60 later cases cite State v. Riles; 60 of those citations sat close to treatment language and were flagged for reading, and all of them have been read. Citations that did not sit near treatment language were not flagged and were not read one by one, so a court that weakened this case without using any of that language would not appear here.
