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

  1. “[Kendrick’s] admitted act of purposefully [firing his gun at Copeland] constitutes the felony offense of aggravated assault, not reckless conduct. See OCGA §§ 16-5-20 (a) (2); 16-5-21 (a) (2), (b) (aggravated assault includes use of a deadly weapon that places another in reasonable apprehension of immediately receiving a violent injury).... Moreover, the jury’s verdict of guilty on the felony murder charge establishes the existence of all the elements of the underlying felony offense of aggravated assault. Boyd v. State, 286 Ga. 166 (4) ( 686 SE2d 109 ) (2009). Thus, the trial court did not err in this regard.”
