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

  1. ““In relying upon the right of confrontation, defendant overlooks the distinction between the determination of guilt and the exercise of the court’s discretion as to probation or extent of punishment.
