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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““However, our statute [Ill. Rev. Stat. 1967, ch. 38, par. 103— 6] and the case law require more than the drawing of ‘commonsense inferences’ for the waiver [of the right to jury trial] to be effective. *** For us to say that the defendant here ‘understandably waived’ a jury trial we must have something more than the face of a three-day trial without a jury. A silent record does not show an affirmative compliance with the statute and this is required.” Ceaser, 17 Ill. App. 3d at 650-51 , 307 N.E.2d at 754 .”
