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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Any right, even a constitutional right, may be surrendered in a plea agreement if that waiver was made knowingly and voluntarily.” United States v. Ashe, 47 F.3d 770, 775-776 (6th Cir.1995); see also Town of Newton v. Rumery, 480 U.S. 386, 393 , 107 S.Ct. 1187, 1192 , 94 L.Ed.2d 405, 416 (1987) (holding that plea bargaining does not violate the U.S. Constitution even if important constitutional rights are waived). It is likewise well established that a plea agreement and any waivers contained therein are binding upon a defendant. United States v. Reason, 42 Fed.Appx. 787, 789 (6th Cir.2002).”
