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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“If the court does not commit the defendant to a drug treatment facility at that time [when convicted], a court can still modify its sentence and commit a defendant to a drug treatment program, if a timely motion is filed within ninety days after conviction. Maryland Rule 4-345(b). It does not matter when the court acts on.such a timely filed motion, only that it be filed timely. After the 90[-]day period expires without a motion being filed, the court has no authority to amend a sentence, unless the sentence involved “fraud, mistake, or irregularity.” Maryland Rule 4-345(b). Because none of these circumstances was alleged in appellant’s motion, the circuit court correctly dismissed appellant’s motion for lack of jurisdiction.”
