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.

  1. “the Hamilton rule no longer barred [the sentencing judge] from considering these out-of-court statements when [the judge] resolved Evans's challenges to the allegations of sexual misconduct contained in the pre-sentence report. [[Image here]] Of course, it was up to [the sentencing judge] to determine what Evans's statements meant, and what events Evans was referring to. When Evans testified about these out-of-court statements, he insisted that he had been referring to innocent touchings that occurred during bathing. This was an issue of fact to be resolved by [the sentencing judge].”
