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 32 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“If an actual conflict exists, there is no need for a defendant to prove that he was also prejudiced thereby.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“[W]e must agree with the defendant's attorney, and with the trial judge, that an actual conflict arose when the state called [counsel's former client] to the stand. [Counsel] was put in the unenviable position of trying zealously to represent the defendant at trial while simultaneously trying to protect the confidences of a former client who was testifying for the state against the defendant.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“"Perhaps the only way to prevent the issue from continuously cropping on appeal is to prevent joint representation altogether, or to painstakingly ascertain from all defendants who are being jointly represented that they understand the risk involved and that they knowingly waive the right to a totally independent attorney."”
