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 91 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “A motion to discharge occurs in a special proceeding. First, a motion to discharge is a legally conferred right that authorizes a special application to a court for enforcement. ... Second, a motion to discharge is a statutory remedy which is not itself an action because the motion does not prosecute alleged rights between parties or end in final judgment.... Thus, a hearing on a motion to discharge is considered a special proceeding.”

  2. “[i]nasmuch as § 29-1207 confers a right to a speedy trial and § 29-1208 authorizes a special application to a court to enforce it, a ruling on a motion for absolute discharge based upon an accused criminal’s nonfrivolous claim that his or her speedy trial rights were violated is a ruling affecting a substantial right made during a special proceeding and is therefore final and appealable.”

  3. “the rights conferred on an accused criminal by §§ 29-1207 and 29-1208 would be significantly undermined if appellate review of nonfrivolous speedy trial claims were postponed until after conviction and sentence.”
