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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The psychiatrist appointed by the court for a sanity examination of the defendant may not be regarded as a prosecution witness, but is instead a witness for the court. Jackson v. State, 225 Ga. 790, 793 , 171 S.E. 2d 501 . Hence, the requisite relationship did not exist and it was not error to admit in evidence the psychiatrist’s testimony as to statements made to him by the defendant during the course of his examination of the defendant.”
