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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Defendant cites no authority for the proposition the increased sentence [under § 747.5, The Code] may only be imposed following an additional guilty verdict or formal guilty plea. To the contrary, the universal rule holds the recidivist laws do not define an additional or different crime but merely go to the issue of punishment. Proceedings under such statutes are for identification only. (Citations omitted.)”
