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 19 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““To convict one of perjury under this statute, the State must not only prove the false statement, but prove that it was material to the issue or point in question. ‘A statement can be neither material nor immaterial in itself, but its materiality must be determined in accordance with its relation to some extraneous matter.’ [Citation.] Materiality looks to the relationship between the propositions for which the evidence is offered and the issues in the case. [Citation.] Therefore the State must prove the falsity of the statement made in the prior proceeding and prove what the issue or point in question in the former proceeding was, so the corut can ascertain the materiality of the alleged false statement to the issue or point in question.” 102 Ill. App. 3d 335, 337-38 , 242 N.E.2d 782, 784 . (Emphasis ours.)”
