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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In evaluating the trial court's findings, this Court must keep in mind the unique perspective the trial court judge has in evaluating the rationale given by the [striking party]. A cold transcript cannot convey all of the subtle nuances of the process of jury selection. This [C]ourt gives the trial court's findings great deference. This Court, however, will not subvert the policy of Batson by acting as a rubber stamp, accepting all nonracial explanations of the court without exception. The [striking party] must show that its peremptory strikes of jurors are neutral, related to the case to be tried, and clear and reasonably specific.”
