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.
“[T]he transcript is clear that [Arnold] did not request counsel of his own choosing nor was he denied the right to represent himself. [At most, Arnold] requested that the court discharge his present trial counsel and appoint another. The trial court, after inquiring into defense counsel’s efforts on behalf of his client, determined that counsel had prepared adequately to defend [Arnold] at trial and told [Arnold] he could either accept the services of his appointed counsel or represent himself.”
