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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Based on my observations of this case if the note had been seasonably turned over during the discovery period, then the State would have had Robbins examine the second computer. Robbins would have determined that the alleged “suicide” note was a product of the second computer and compiled several months after Guthrie murdered his wife. By virtue of the discovery order the State would turn over this information to the defense. Under the circumstances, it is inconceivable that the defense would have offered this note into evidence. Therefore, Robbins would not have been called as a rebuttal witness and no further costs incurred. The further costs were directly and totally caused by the violation of the discovery order.”
