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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It clearly appears on this record that defendant was not, in fact, deprived of-an examination of the specific memoran-da which he now insists were held from him. All that the trial judge did in the instant case was to deny defendant’s counsel examination and introduction of an entire investigation file, the great bulk of which had neither been referred nor alluded to by the witness.””
