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 46 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[I]n deciding whether two or more offenses should be joined for trial, the trial court must determine whether the offenses are ‘so separate in time and place and so distinct in circumstances as to render the consolidation unjust and prejudicial to defendant.’ (Citation omitted.) Thus, there must be some type of ‘transactional connection’ between the offenses before they may be consolidated for trial. (Citation omitted.) In addition, the trial judge’s exercise of discretion in consolidating charges will not be disturbed on appeal absent a showing that the defendant has been denied a fair trial by the order of consolidation. (Citations omitted.)”
