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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The trial court convicted [the appellant] of the offense of harassment for slapping [the victim], [The victim] testified at trial that the couch was replaced because “[that was] where I was raped and we didn’t want that in my house.” [citation omitted] Even assuming that there was a loss of property within the meaning of Section 1106, there was no direct nexus between the crime for which [the appellant] was convicted and the loss of the couch, as Section 1106 requires.”
