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 27 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"At the time of sentencing, the judge shall: (a) afford the defendant the opportunity to make a statement on his own behalf and afford counsel . . . an opportunity to present arguments and information relative to sentencing; . . . (c) advise the defendant on the record: ..... (2) of the right to file motions challenging the propriety of the sentence. . .; (3) of the ten (10) day time limit within which such motions must be filed; . . ." (Emphasis Added).”

In selecting from the alternative set forth in subsection (a) the court shall follow the general principle that the sentence imposed should call for confinement that is consistent with the protection of the public, the gravity of the offense as it relates to the impact on the life of the victim and on the community and rehabilitative needs of the defendant...” 42 Pa.C.S.A. § 9721(b).”
