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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[W]hen we consider the complete instruction on justifiable use of deadly force given in this case, we find the jury was sufficiently instructed that, absent a reasonable belief he was under threat of imminent death or great bodily harm, or imminent commission of a forcible felony, Hardison’s use of deadly force in self-defense was not justified. The evidence put before the jury could support a finding that, Hardison’s belief that the threat was imminent was unreasonable, whether or not he was engaged in unlawful activity.”
