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 29 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"A person who is an accomplice in the commission of a crime is guilty of that crime whether present at the scene or not. "A person is an accomplice in the commission of a crime, if, with knowledge that it will promote or facilitate the commission of the crime, he or she either: "(1) solicits, commands, encourages, or requests another person to commit the crime; or "(2) aids or agrees to aid another person in planning or committing the crime. "The word 'aid' means all assistance whether given by words, acts, encouragement, support, or presence. A person who is present at the scene and is ready to assist by his or her presence is aiding in the commission of the crime."”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“"The defendants are accused of committing a crime while in the possession of a firearm. "In the event that you find that neither of the defendants are guilty of the crime of Complicity in the Unlawful Delivery of a Controlled Substance, then it will not be necessary for you to consider the second accusation relating to the possession of a firearm. "In the event that you find that either or both of the defendants are guilty of the crime of Complicity in the Unlawful Delivery of a Controlled Substance, then it will be necessary for you to further determine whether that, or those, defendants were in the possession of a firearm. "If you find that either or both of the defendants were in the possession of a firearm at the time either or both of them committed the crime of Complicity in the Unlawful Delivery of a Controlled Substance, then you shall so indicate your findings on the special verdict form attached. "In this connection, the sole question is whether or not a firearm was, in fact, in the possession of the defendants. It shall make no difference to you in answering this question whether or not a permit had been issued for the carrying of the gun." (Italics ours.)”
