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 98 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"Our decision, like [that in Whiteley v. Warden, Wyoming State Penitentiary, 401 U.S. 560 , 91 S.Ct. 1031 , 28 L.Ed.2d 306 (1971)] is limited to complaint practice. The charging process, when by indictment or information, is not governed by our decision. Crim.P. 7(b) (3) permits the filing of a direct information and leaves the determination of probable cause to the preliminary hearing. Crim. P. 7(g) (1). The grand jury, in returning a true bill, is the arbiter of probable cause. It is clear that an indictment or information is sufficient if it charges a crime in the words of the statute.
