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.
“evidence relating to the past sexual behavior of the [victim] shall not be admissible, either as direct evidence or on cross-examination of the [victim] or other witnesses, except as provided in this Code section.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“On appeal from a criminal conviction, the evidence must be construed in [the] light most favorable to the verdict, and [Robinson] no longer enjoys a presumption of innocence.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“Nevertheless, the trial court's error does not necessarily mandate a new trial. Rather, in order for an error to be grounds for reversal, the appellant must show not only error but ensuing harm. . . . [A] reversal is not required if the evidence of guilt is overwhelming in that there is no reasonable probability that the verdict of the jury would have been different in the absence of this error. [20]”
