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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[Defendant played an active role in exploiting the circumstances to place himself in a position to make a speedy-trial claim. Defendant insisted that Stone continue serving as his trial attorney despite the trial court’s finding of a serious potential for conflict. Further, after Stone was dis qualified, defendant [’s] .•.. replacement attorney ... assisted defendant in ultimately having Stone reinstated as defense counsel. However, the reinstatement occurred only after the State’s witnesses had been returned to their military duties. Had defendant accepted the court’s waiver offer when it was first made, his trial would have undoubtedly commenced within the 120-day speedy-trial term. The State was ready at that time for trial to begin, and its witnesses were available to testify. In other words, it was defendant who set in motion the sequence of events that delayed his trial until November 2005. ... For all these reasons, we conclude that the court did not abuse its discretion in attributing to defendant the delay in this ease.”
