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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““At the hearing on the motion to revoke probation, the prosecutor explained that due to an error by one of the attorneys, he did not learn of Rocha’s sentencing in Wyandotte County. Regardless of where the breakdown in communication occurred, the State’s failure to conduct a reasonable investigation to ascertain Rocha’s whereabouts constituted a waiver of the probation violation. [Citation omitted.] It is clear from the record on appeal that all parties involved knew Rocha was being detained in Wyandotte County. The State must therefore accept responsibility for failing to keep track of Rocha. It is the State’s responsibility to bring a probation revocation to the trial court in a timely manner. “We believe that the trial court did not have jurisdiction to revoke Rocha’s probation. The delay in pursuing the initial motion to revoke probation was unreasonable. The second motion to revoke probation was filed years after Rocha had served his complete probationary term.” (Emphasis added.) 30 Kan. App. 2d at 820-21.”
