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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The facts concerning the defendant’s arrest, as shown by the files and records, are almost completely unknown to this court. Defendant’s amended postconviction petition, while not as artful as it might be, is sufficient to raise the issue of the lawfulness of his arrest. Defendant alleges an illegal search. The files and records of the case do not show that “defendant is entitled to no relief.” If defendant can establish his allegations, he might be entitled to relief.”
