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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In West Virgima there are fundamental statutory differences between probation and parole in the relationsMp they bear to the underlying criminal sentence. The term probation has no correlation to the underlying criminal sentence, while parole is directly tied to it. In effect, there is a probation sentence wMch operates independently of the criminal sentence.”
