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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Although we find the trial court in substantial compliance with Rule 24.6, this court has observed a growing trend among trial judges to make casual and indirect inquiry as to the factual basis for pleas. Inasmuch as Rule 24.5 requires the trial court to address the defendant personally to determine whether or not any force or threats, or any promises apart from the plea agreement were used to induce the plea, the trial court could, and should, comply with Rule 24.6 by continuing a direct inquiry of the defendant as to the factual basis for his plea. This would, for all practical purposes, eliminate problems of compliance with this rule requiring inquiry as to the factual basis for a plea.”
