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 40 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"We agree with our predecessors that the trial court should not undertake to define the term `reasonable doubt', however, where the court below has given an instruction defining `reasonable doubt', we will carefully examine the instruction with reference to the whole record before us, and if it should appear from such scrutiny of the record that the effect of such instruction is not one of injury to the defendant, we will not reverse the cause solely on the basis of such instruction."”
5 later decisions quote this exact passage““The reception of hearsay evidence over objection is error. Whether it is revers ible error depends upon all the facts and circumstances of the case and the prejudicial effect which the reception of such evidence might have had on the jury.””
