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

1. ““. . . [W]here judgment and sentence have been entered upon a plea of guilty, there can be no review of the sufficiency of the evidence in a 60-1507 proceeding.” (p. 517.)”

2. ““The second and final material claim advanced by petitioner, that he was threatened, coerced, mistreated and intimidated by prosecuting officials, is supported only by his own uncorroborated statements to that effect. Moreover the record discloses his plea of guilty was entered at the time when he had been fully advised by the ■court as to his rights and was represented by counsel, with whom he had previously been given every opportunity to confer and advise. * * * This court has long been committed to the rule that the unsupported and uncorroborated statements of the petitioner in a habeas corpus proceeding do not sustain the burden of proof or justify the granting of a writ where— as here — the judgment rendered is regular on its face and hence entitled to a presumption of regularity and validity.””
