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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In speaking to the court, the State had the right to and did state the extent of defendant’s participation in the crimes. A less than truthful soft pedaling or whitewashing of tlie extent of defendant’s participation in stating the facts to the court would have been inappropriate. On the other hand, editorializing on the facts could he considered as urging consecutive over concurrent sentences, the only issue before the court at sentencing as both offenses were class A felonies. “In reviewing the prosecutor’s comments themselves and also in their proper context within the sentencing proceeding, we conclude the comments were not tantamount to making a recommendation contraiy to the plea agreement.” (Emphasis added.) Johnson, 258 Kan. at 107 .”
