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 41 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The rule permitting a trial justice in the exercise of his discretion to limit the scope of cross-examination within the reasonable bounds of matters inquired into during the direct examination, State v. Campbell, 95 R. I. 370, 187 A.2d 543 , York v. Ventilato, 80 R. I. 192, 94 A.2d 820 , has no application if the witness is an expert who has given opinion testimony. In such a case the latitude permitted is much wider. Within limits of relevancy the scope is expanded so as to allow questions touching matters testified to in direct examination as well as inquiries purposed upon testing the qualifications, skills or knowledge of the witness or the accuracy or value of his opinion, or the methods by which he arrived at or the data upon which he based his conclusion. Carr v. American Locomotive Co., 26 R. I. 180, 58 A. 678 ; McVeigh v. MaCullough, 96 R. I. 412, 192 A.2d 437 .””
1 later decision quote this exact passage““* * * Call this case as you conscientiously believe it should be called, if you do, justice will triumph again today in Rhode Island, because in my judgment, Mr. Foreman and ladies and gentlemen of the jury, on the basis of the law, and on the basis of the credible evidence that you have heard in this case, your verdict should be a verdict that has no other alternative than that the defendant, Anthony A. Quattrocchi, is guilty as charged.” (italics ours)”
