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 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[T]here’s a separate form for each of the two defendants. . . . [0]n each of [the] three counts, . . . there are two choices: the top choice is not guilty, the second choice is guilty. It’s very simple, all you have to do is check off the verdict that applies in each case. The point, again, is to remember to consider each defendant guilty. 17”
