The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

1. ““The Court: The Court finds the defendant guilty of violation of Section 245, assault by means of force likely to produce great bodily injury, an offense necessarily included in that charged in the Information. I believe it is included. Wouldn’t you say so ? “Mb. Obb [Deputy District Attorney] : It is, your Honor. That is in Count II. “The Court: Well, I am not finding Mm guilty of Count II, assault with a deadly weapon. This is included. It will be included in Count II, I take it? “Mr. Orb: That’s correct. “Mb. Reynolds [Deputy Public Defender]: I take it your Honor is finding the defendant not guilty of Count I. “The Court: Not guilty of Count I and Counts [sic] II, but guilty of a necessarily included offense in Count II, an assault by means of force like [sic] to produce great bodily injury.””
