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 51 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Penal Code, section 1368, provides: “If at any time during the pendency of an action and prior to judgment a doubt arises as to the sanity of the defendant, the court must order the question as to his sanity to be determined by a trial . . . and, from the time of such order, all proceedings in the criminal prosecution shall be suspended until the question of the sanity of the defendant has been determined...””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“The duty imposed upon the trial judge by the statute [§ 1368] is not conditioned on a motion in reliance on the code provision.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“when a doubt of the defendant's sanity ... appears on the face of the record as a matter of law, an abuse of discretion is shown and the failure to order a determination of the question of sanity results in a miscarriage of justice and a reversal is required. ( People v. Vester, 135 Cal. App. 223 [ 26 P.2d 685 ]; People v. West, supra, 25 Cal. App. 369 [ 143 P. 793 ].)”
