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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"Revocation of probation is the severest of four different discretionary sanctions which Louisiana courts may apply when they find that probationers are not responding properly to their conditional freedom. LSA-C.Cr.P. art. 900. A probationer cannot appeal the proper utilization by the state of any of those procedures." (Emphasis added.)”
