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

  1. “To the extent [McCutcheon’s] testimony conflicted with [Thornton’s on this issue], it was the function of the [jury] as the trier of fact — not this Court — to resolve the conflict. Thus, the [jury] was authorized to believe [McCutcheon] rather than [Thornton] and find [Thornton] guilty of theft.”
