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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The supreme court's order granting [the petitioner] permission to proceed [is] a finding of a prima facie case. The [circuit] court should request that the State respond to the motion. Then, pursuant to Mississippi Code Annotated section 99-39-19..., the [circuit] court must examine the record and determine whether an evidentiary hearing is required.”
