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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “You have heard evidence that the Defendant at another time, may have engaged in other acts. You must not use this evidence to conclude that the Defendant is a person of bad character and therefore must have committed the offenses [sic] charged in this case. The evidence is being allowed to provide you with the context of the relationship between the complaining witness and the defendant and to give you a possible explanation for the complaining witness's differing testimony in court and for no other purpose.”
