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) where newly discovered evidence exists which would be sufficient to establish by clear and convincing evidence that no reasonable factfinder would have found the movant guilty of the offense; (2) where there is a new rule of constitutional law, made retroactive to cases on collateral review by the Supreme Court, that was previously unavailable; (3) where a subsequent court decision alters the prevailing interpretation of a statute and makes clear that the petitioner’s conduct did not violate the statute, hence the conviction must be vacated.”
