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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““* * * the crimes charged, mitigated deliberate homicide and aggravated assault, require ‘knowledge’ or ‘purpose’ on the part of the accused. The jury therefore was entitled to a complete definition of ‘knowledge’ and the given instruction, taken almost verbatim from § 94-2-101(27), R.C.M., 1947, was such a definition.” ( 574 P.2d at 270 ) (Emphasis supplied).”
