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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “The defendant is charged in Counts 1 and 2 with robbery. To prove that the defendant is guilty of this crime, the People must prove that: [¶] One, the defendant took property that was not his own; [¶] Two, the property was in the possession of another person; [¶] Three, the property was taken from the other person or his or her immediate presence; [¶] Four, the property was taken against that person's will; [¶] Five, the defendant used force or fear to take the property or to prevent the person from resisting; and [¶] Six, when defendant used force or fear to take the property, he intended to deprive the owner of it permanently. [¶] The defendant's intent to take the property must have been formed before or during the time he used force or fear. If the defendant did not form this required intent until after using the force or fear, then he did not commit robbery. [¶] The property taken can be of any value, however, slight. [¶] Fear as used here means fear of injury to the person himself or herself.”

The fear of an immediate and unlawful injury to the person or property of anyone in the company of the person robbed at the time of the robbery.”
