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.
“[T]hat a defendant who commits a probation violation while still serving the custodial portion of his sentence should be treated no differently than a defendant who has served his custodial sentence but commits a violation while on probation. The suspension or deferment of a sentence is not a matter of right, but a decision reserved to the sound discretion of the sentencing court.”
