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

  1. “We concur with the reasoning of Jones [v. State, 416 N.E.2d 880 (Ind.App.1981) ] and Manning [v. Engelkes, 281 N.W.2d 7 (Iowa 1979) ]. Although involving different facts, this court stated the same general rule in Smith v. Smith, 115 Ariz. 299, 303 , 564 P.2d 1266, 1270 (App.1977), “It is generally conceded that the bias and prejudice necessary to disqualify a judge must arise from an extra-judicial source and not from what the judge has done in his participation in the case.” We agree that the rule that a trial judge must be impartial, “does not mean that a judge must recuse himself from a criminal case merely because he has heard unfavorable remarks about the defendant in the course of prior litigation.” Commonwealth v. Campbell, 5 Mass.App.Ct. 571, 587, 366 N.E.2d 44, 57 (1977) (alleged bias based on judge presiding over earlier trial of same defendant). See also State v. Munoz, 110 Ariz. 419 , 520 P.2d 291 (1974). The cases of State v. Valencia, 124 Ariz. 139 , 602 P.2d 807 (1979) and State v. Leslie, 136 Ariz. 463 , 666 P.2d 1072 (1983), cited by defendant, are readily distinguishable. Both were cases in which the trial court spoke ex parte to relatives of murder victims prior to sentencing. The information received there was not obtained in a prior judicial proceeding.”
