The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

2 later decisions quote this exact passage“"On appeal, this Court's jurisdiction is limited to questions of law; therefore, if there is some evidence proving the essential elements of the crime, no question of law is presented, sufficiency of the evidence being a matter to be decided by the trier of fact. State v. Victor, 368 So.2d 711 (La.1979); State v. Madison, 345 So.2d 485 (La.1977). It follows that on review of a denial of a motion for a new trial, this Court will not review the sufficiency of the evidence presented to the trial court but will simply determine if there is some evidence of each element."”
