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 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(1) A person . . . knowingly causes another person who is not his spouse to have sexual contact with him or another: (b) When the other person is less than fourteen years of age (2) For the purposes of this section, "sexual contact" means any touching of the sexual or other intimate parts of a person done for the purpose of gratifying sexual desire of either party.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“The inclusion of the words `or other intimate parts' does not limit the touching to genitalia but is intended to include genitalia, breasts and whatever anatomical areas the trier of fact deems `intimate' in the particular cases which arise. Thus the ultimate decision of `intimate' parts is left to the community sense of decency, propriety and morality.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“for the purpose of arousing or gratifying the sexual desire of either party.”
