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 28 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ * * * It is appellant’s burden on appeal to show affirmatively that error was committed, and to establish that the error prejudiced the substantial rights of the accused. (State v. Freeman, 216 Kan. 653 , 533 P.2d 1236 .) Speculation as to the possibility of prejudice is insufficient to reverse a conviction.” State v. Ambler, 220 Kan. 560 , 552 P.2d 896, 900 (1976). See also Kennedy v. State, supra, at 1018.”
