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.
“The standard of appellate review for a sufficiency of the evidence claim is whether, after viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 319 , 99 S.Ct. 2781, 2789 , 61 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979). A determination of the weight of evidence is a question of fact, resting solely with the trier of fact who may accept or reject, in whole or in part, the testimony of any witnesses. A reviewing court may impinge on the fact-finding function of the jury only to the extent necessary to assure the Jackson standard of review. It is not the function of an appellate court to assess credibility or re-weigh the evidence.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“This court has previously held that imposing consecutive sentence[s] for offenses occurring on separate dates and under different circumstances did not constitute an abuse of discretion. State v. Baker, 08-54 (La.App. 3 Cir. 5/7/08) , 986 So.2d 682 . The fifth circuit has held that consecutive sentences are indicated for offenses occurring on different dates and locations. State v. Wilson, 99-105 (La.App. 5 Cir. 7/27/99) , 742 So.2d 957 , writ denied, 99-2583 (La.2/11/00), 754 So.2d 935 . The fifth circuit has applied this holding to distribution of cocaine occurring on different days. State v. Dillon, 01-906 (La.App. 5 Cir. 2/26/02) , 812 So.2d 770 , writ denied, 02-1189 (La.4/21/03), 841 So.2d 779 .”
