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 80 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “(1) relevant to the voir dire examination; (2) whether it was unambiguous; and (3) whether the juror had substantial knowledge of the information sought to be elicited.”
    40 later decisions quote this exact passage
    e.g. Doss v. State · Langston v. State
  2. “... No firm, unbending rule can be laid down that would control every situation that might arise on the voir dire of perspective jurors. Therefore, each case must be decided on an ad hoc basis considering the facts then before the court.”
    5 later decisions quote this exact passage
    e.g. Brown v. State · Sewell v. State
  3. “Such examination in this case would have, in all probability, established that the juror's brother was in fact a policeman in the area where the crime for which the appellant was being tried occurred, thus giving him a rational basis from which to challenge the jury peremptorily, if not for cause.”
    1 later decision quote this exact passage
