Miranda vs. Arizona...
The actual Miranda warning was made up of 4 different cases; Malloy vs. Hogan, Escobedo vs. ?, Carnley vs. Cochran and of course Miranda vs. Arizona.
On 3/13/1963, Ernesto Miranda was arrested at his home and taken to a Phoenix police station. He wasn't advised that he could have an attorney present, and on his signed statement which was later allowed into court, the police had a typed in clause stating "With full knowledge of my legal rights, understanding that any statement I make may be used against me." (sound familiar?) In any case, he was found guilty of kidnapping and rape, and was sentenced to 20/30 years for each count.
The concurrence: Chief Justice Warren ruled against original court's judgment, and the other three convictions were overturned as well...No idea who sided with him, but Justices White, Harlan and Stewart dissented.

...I don't think this was all that you asked for, but I hope it helped.
