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 51 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[T]he teachings of Noble and Shulark are summed up in the emphasis in both cases on whether the criminal conduct “was directed to the accomplishment of a single criminal objective,” Noble , or whether the conduct was “part of a continuous series of criminal acts,” Shulark . The factors of time, place and number of victims are to be considered in assessing this criminal conduct, but A.R.S § 13-604(H), in recognizing that separate crimes can be committed on “the same occasion,” does not make much sense if these factors alone are determinative.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“[A] vague and potentially open-ended conspiracy to commit whatever crimes can be committed is alone insufficient to unite apparently distinct crimes. We find no error with the consecutive sentences imposed.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Stein · State v. Shulark“Convictions for two or more offenses committed on the same occasion shall be counted as only one conviction for purposes of this section.”
