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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Here the trial judge gave the identical instruction as to purpose when charging the jury on the substantive offense of assault as he did for the possessory offense. Under that circumstance, the rule of State v. Jenkins, supra, 234 N.J.Super. [311] at 315, 560 A. 2d 1240 [(1989)] applies because "acquittal of the accompanying charge erase[d] the identification of ... [defendant's] unlawful purpose" in possessing the gun that ... [defendant] pointed at ... [victim]. Accordingly, we conclude that the conviction of ... [defendant] of possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose must be reversed.”
