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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“A trial court's denial of a motion for mistrial [based on a discovery violation] will not be reversed absent an abuse of discretion. This is because the trial court is in the best position to determine whether the incident prejudiced the jury. Therefore, we will not find an abuse of discretion unless a review of the record shows that the court's decision is plainly wrong in that the incident so likely influenced the jury that the defendant cannot be said to have a fair trial.”
