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.
“‘The defendant complains that he was not permitted to cross-examine the mother of the complaining witness as to whether a civil action was being filed against the defendant arising out of the shooting of her son by the defendant. We believe that this lies within the permissible limits of cross-examination, to show bias or a motive for prevarication on the part of the witness. State v. Little, supra, 87 Ariz. [295] at 301, 350 P.2d 756 [ 86 A.L.R.2d 1120 ] ; and see United States v. Lester, 248 F.2d 329 (2nd Cir. 1957). State v. Taylor, 9 Ariz.App. 290, 294 , 451 P.2d 648, 652 (1969).”
