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

  1. “When a district attorney or assistant district attorney makes a good faith bargain with a person accused of a crime and defendant, in reliance on that bargain, relinquishes such a fundamental right as the privilege against self-incrimination, the State cannot repudiate the bargain.”
    2 later decisions quote this exact passage
  2. “[a]ll pleas or defenses raised before trial, other than mental incapacity to proceed, or pleas of `not guilty' and of `not guilty and not guilty by reason of insanity,' shall be urged by a motion to quash.”
    2 later decisions quote this exact passage
  3. “Defendant Tanner waived his privilege against self-incrimination before the grand jury. An order could have been obtained ordering his testimony but, in that case, his compelled testimony could not have been used against him in a subsequent prosecution. LSA-C.Cr.P. 439.1. Testimony under such an order gives the witness immunity from use of that testimony in future prosecutions. It is significant that defendant Tanner was not offered and did not receive that statutory immunity. LSA-C.Cr.P. art. 439.1... Because Tanner received no immunity, his testimony could be used at a later criminal trial to impeach him... Since Tanner did not testify under the compulsion of an order, he cannot claim use immunity. 22”
