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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“1) that counsel’s representation fell below an objective standard of reasonableness (the “performance” prong) and 2) that there is a reasonable probability that, but for counsel’s unprofessional errors, the result of the proceeding would have been different ... (i.e., that the deficient performance prejudiced the defense) (the “prejudice” prong).”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“[a] defendant who knowingly and intelligently waives his attorney's potential or actual conflict of interest may not, under any circumstances, later claim that such a conflict deprived him of his right to effective assistance of counsel.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“that there is a reasonable probability that, but for counsel's errors, he would not have pleaded guilty and would have insisted on going to trial.”
