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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[sjince [Frazier] was charged with DUI by having [0.10] percent or more by weight of alcohol in his blood . . . the instructions concerning being a less safe driver . . . and the inferences [derived therefrom] were superfluous. However, since the jury was also informed of the legal ramifications of a blood-alcohol content of over [0.10] percent and there was evidence that [Frazier’s] blood-alcohol content was greater than [0.10] percent, we do not believe the additional language in the charge was harmful to [Frazier].”
