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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(1) whether [petitioner] made a sufficient showing to the trial judge that his sanity would be a “significant factor at trial,” (2) whether petitioner received competent psychiatric assistance for his defense, and (3) whether the refusal to provide [petitioner] with psychiatric assistance was harmless error.”
