These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 95 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In our view, Hamilton [v. State of Alabama, supra] and White [v. State of Maryland, supra] teach that an accused is denied rights afforded him under the sixth amendment when he is subjected to an arraignment or to a preliminary hearing without the assistance of counsel, where events transpire that are likely to prejudice Jiis ensuing trial.” DeToro v. Pepersack, 332 F.2d 341 , 343 (4th Cir. 1964), Cert. den. 379 U.S. 909 , 85 S.Ct. 198 , 13 L.Ed.2d 181 ; And see, United States ex rel. Cooper v. Reincke, 333 F.2d 608 (2d Cir. 1964).”
