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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[a] person commits the offense of aggravated assault when he or she assaults: . . . [w]ith intent to murder, to rape, or to rob; ... [w]ith a deadly weapon or with any object, device, or instrument which, when used offensively against a person, is likely to or actually does result in serious bodily injury . .. or . . . [assaults] [a] person or persons without legal justification by discharging a firearm from within a motor vehicle toward a person or persons.”
