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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“we will measure the trial court’s discretion by the standard set out in Britt v. North Carolina, 404 U. S. 226 (92 SC 431, 30 LE2d 400) [(1971)]. The United States Supreme Court held in Britt that two factors are relevant to evaluating an indigent defendant’s claim to a free transcript: (1) the transcript’s value in connection with the defendant’s trial or appeal, and (2) the accessibility of other means that would fulfill the same functions as a transcript. Id. at 227 . Both factors must be weighed in the indigent defendant’s favor absent a contrary showing in the record, but only where time in weighing the defendant’s request does not appear to be a factor.”
