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.
“Under the particular circumstances of the present case, where the trial court, after having been divested of jurisdiction, denied defendant’s motion for a new trial, the substance of which he then raised on appeal, we find a remand is proper. Before this Court, a court of review, addresses the merits of an issue that the trial court improperly considered, in light of due process considerations, defendant is entitled to have those merits considered by a trial court properly vested with jurisdiction. Although equitable considerations of judicial economy are as pertinent here as in other cases, this case is distinguishable because it presents a definite issue of due process concern. Under such circumstances, we find that defendant’s due process rights should not yield to equitable considerations of judicial economy. Consequently, we are constrained to vacate the sentences imposed on defendant ... and remand this matter to the trial court to |firule on defendant’s motion for a new trial, and, if denied, to resentence defendant.”
