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.
“"To the extent that the statute and its amendment authorizes a court to alter or reduce, after a final conviction, a defendant's sentence to reflect credit for presentence confinement, when such was not constitutionally or statutorily required at the time sentence was imposed, it falls within the principles announced in People v. Herrera [Colo., 516 P.2d 626 ], and is an unconstitutional infringement on the executive power of commutation." Id. at 287-8, 523 P.2d 1403 .”
