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 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[A]pplying the “actual evidence” test of our substantive double jeopardy provisions, see OCGA §§ 16-1-7 (a), 16-1-6, we find that [appellant’s] conviction for [aggravated assault of the deceased victim] must be set aside. The “actual evidence” test, in effect, means “ ‘that if the state uses up all the evidence that the defendant committed one crime in establishing another crime, the former crime is included in the latter as a matter of fact under . . . OCGA § 16-1-6 (1).’ ” Haynes v. State, 249 Ga. 119 (2) ( 288 SE2d 185 ) (1982). [Alvin v. State, 253 Ga. 740, 741-742 (1) ( 325 SE2d 143 ) (1985).]”
