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. ““To prove the offense of Assault and Battery with Intent to Rape, the intended act [rape] need not be shown to have been consummated, it needs only to be shown that there was conduct by the accused from which the court or jury could logically and reasonably infer the element of intent. This Court in Hanes v. State (1900), 155 Ind. 112, 116 , 57 N.E. 704, 705 , made the following statement on this point. ‘Intent is a mental function, and, where not consummated, it is impossible to know with absolute certainly what was operating in the actor’s mind ; and in such cases it must be arrived at by courts and juries from a consideration of the conduct in the natural and usual sequence to which such conduct logically and reasonably points. . . .’” 271 N.E.2d at 888-890.”
