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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“A person is guilty of criminal simulation when: 1. With intent to defraud, he makes or alters any object in such manner that it appears to have an antiquity, rarity, source or authorship which it does not in fact possess; or 2. With knowledge of its true character and with intent to defraud, he utters or possesses an object so simulated. Criminal simulation is a class A misdemeanor. N.Y.Penal Law § 170.45 (McKinney 1975).”
