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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The plaintiff next argues that once the court had imposed a sentence against him it could not later resentence him. This contention is without merit. The first sentence was void, since the penalty imposed was that required hy law for second-degree burglary, not [first-degree] robbery. Accordingly, it was the court’s clear duty to set the original sentence aside and impose a valid sentence.” (Emphasis added.) 199 Kan. at 485 .”
