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 29 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“`it is the administrative judge who has an overall view of the court's business, who is responsible "for the administration of the court," who assigns trial judges, who "supervise[s] the assignment of actions for trial," who supervises the court personnel involved in the assignment of cases, and who receives reports from such personnel,' and `[c]onsequently, the administrative judge is ordinarily in a much better position than another judge of the trial court, or an appellate court, to make the judgment as to whether good cause for postponement of a criminal case exists.'”
4 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. Capers v. State · Choate v. State“Nevertheless, we found that § 591 and Rule 4-271 exhibited a legislative intent which contravened this general rule ... and that the trial judge, in ruling on a motion to dismiss, is not authorized to reverse the administrative judge’s finding of good cause absent a clear showing of abuse of discretion____ We also noted that the trial judge’s role in entertaining a motion to dismiss under § 591 and Rule 4-271 is a limited one because the statute and the Rule have “deprived [the trial judge] of the authority to exercise independent judgment concerning good cause for postponement.” [citations omitted]”
