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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The court is equally divided on whether to affirm or reverse the order of the circuit court on the charge of attempted first degree intentional homicide. Justice Donald W. Steinmetz, Justice Jon P. Wilcox, and Justice N. Patrick Crooks would affirm; Justice William A. Bablitch, Justice Ann Walsh Bradley, and Justice David T. Prosser would reverse. . . . [W]e vacate our order granting certification and remand the cause to the court of appeals .... Shirley S. Abrahamson, Chief Justice, did not participate.”
