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 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““our Supreme Court held that when appellant raising ineffectiveness of counsel is represented on appeal by that same counsel, we should entertain the claim only if reversible error is apparent on the record; if the claim is not apparent on the face of the record then we must remand for appointment of new counsel not associated with the allegedly ineffective counsel. Commonwealth v. Glasco, 481 Pa. 490 , 393 A.2d 11 (1978).” Commonwealth v. Roach, 268 Pa.Super. at 341 , 408 A.2d at 496 . (Emphasis added).”
