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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“There was no proffer of the prospective testimony by affidavit nor even any factual allegation as to what this exculpatory testimony might be. There is nothing in the motion to show admissible evidence would be forthcoming from the witnesses. Hence, there is no showing before this Court of a causal relationship between the failure to obtain the testimony at trial of these witnesses (the alleged incompetence of counsel) and the defendant's conviction. The trial court should not have to speculate as to the nature of this testimony when it is asked to grant an evidentiary hearing.”
