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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Nor can the order denying the challenge to the array he converted into an appealable order by virtue of the fact that it is joined with the appeal of am, interlocutory order which is appealable, that is, the trial court’s ruling denying the motion for a speedy trial. The precise point appears to be one of first impression in Maryland. At least two other States, however, have repudiated, attempts to com,bine a nonappealable order with an appealable, interlocutory order. To hold otherwise might presage the outbreak of a rash of spurious motions to dismiss for lack of a speedy trial filed solely for the calculated purpose of laying the ground work for an immediate appeal to which otherwise clearly nonappealable issues would be attached as companions. Judge Close’s order denying the motion challenging the petit jury array was an interlocutory, nonappealable order. Accordingly, the State’s motion to dismiss is granted.”
