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 110 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “"The true test of voluntariness of extra-judicial confessions is whether, under all the surrounding circumstances, they have been induced by a threat or a promise, express or implied, operating to produce in the mind of the prisoner apprehension of harm or hope of favor; and if so, whether true or false, such confessions must be excluded from the consideration of the jury as having been procured by undue influence."”

  2. “"The right to protection against an unlawful search is personal, and a defendant in a criminal case who denies any proprietary or possessory interest in seized property has no standing to object to the method of seizure. Shurman v. United States (5th Cir.), 219 F.2d 282 ; United States v. Serrano (2nd Cir.), 317 F.2d 356 ; Williams v. United States (10th Cir.), 323 F.2d 90 ; United States ex rel. Smith v. Reincke, D.C., 239 F.Supp. 887 ."”

  3. ““DEFENDANT’S REQUESTED JURY CHARGE NO. 11 The law presumes that the defendant is innocent of the charge against her and this presumption of innocence is evidence in her behalf to be considered by you, and you cannot find her guilty, until, from the evidence, her guilt is established to your reasonable satisfaction and beyond a reasonable doubt.” (Italics added.) “DEFENDANT’S REQUESTED JURY CHARGE NO. 15 The Court charges the jury that the defendant is presumed to be innocent until the evidence convinces the jury beyond all reasonable doubt that she is guilty; and if, upon a consideration of all the evidence, the jury have a reasonable doubt growing out of all the evidence, they must acquit the defendant.” (Italics added.) “DEPENDANT’S REQUESTED JURY CHARGE NO. 16 The presumption of innocence attends the accused as a matter of evidence, and is sufficient in itself to authorize the acquittal of the defendant and, to displace this presumption of innocence, the State is required to offer evidence that convinces you beyond all reasonable doubt as to the guilt of the defendant.” (Italics added.)”
