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 31 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[t]aking property belonging to a sleeping person, and in his presence at the time, is not larceny from the person unless the thing was attached to him, in the pocket of clothing being worn by him, or controlled by him at the time in some equivalent manner.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“... `the element of taking is complete in the sense of being satisfied at the moment a thief first exercises dominion over the property.'”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“The crime of larceny from the person is regularly understood to include the taking of property “from one’s presence and control.” Thus, for larceny to be “from the person,” the property stolen must be in the immediate presence of and under the protection or control of the victim at the time the property is taken.”
