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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[T]he trial court’s decision to revoke an appeal bail bond should be accompanied by at least minimal due process protections. Here the trial judge’s revocation order was issued on the basis of information supplied ex parte by the district attorney’s office that the defendant had been convicted in the Recorder’s Court of the City of Columbus and bound over to the State Court for offenses involving discharging a firearm. There is no evidence of attempts to notify defendant’s counsel or of a hearing on the matter. We feel that due process requirements of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments ... mandated notice and an evidentiary hearing.”
