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

1. “If the court concludes that any or all of the materials released to it by APH are statements of the complainant that should have been disclosed to appellant and heard by the jury, then a new trial shall be granted. If, however, the court concludes that the materials are not statements of the complainant or are statements relating only to counselling services, and thus outside the scope of defense review, the court shall reimpose sentence.”
