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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[w]hen a defendant is convicted on separate counts, each of which fall within that category of crimes requiring a mandatory three-year sentence ..., consecutive sentences are not mandated thereunder. However, neither are such sentences prohibited. It is within the discretion of the trial judge to impose concurrent or consecutive sentences.”
