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

  1. “The Rule’s requirement that, in order to be hearsay, the out-of-court statement must be “offered to prove the truth of the matter asserted” is shorthand, providing a convenient code phrase for lawyers. If amplified for clarity, the phrase would read, “offered in evidence to prove today the same truth of the matter that was asserted by the declarant at the time he or she made the out-of-court statement.” For further clarity, a definition would be added: “An out- of-court statement will be considered to be offered to prove that ‘truth,’ only if it would have no probative value (as to the relevant fact it is offered to prove) unless the declarant was both sincere and accurate when he or she made the statement.””

  2. “As the trial court correctly reasoned, what the officer “draws upon to make his decisions as an investigator as to arrest or not arrest, is not to adhere to the same rules that we do here.” In other words, an interviewee’s statements to an investigating police officer are not “hearsay” unless and until they are offered into evidence for their truth.”

  3. “[A] relevant extrajudicial statement is admissible as non-hearsay when it is offered for the purpose of showing that a person relied on and acted upon the statement and is not introduced for the purpose of showing that the facts asserted in the statement are true.”
