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

  1. “The first witness ... was offered... . Identity of this witness's name was made about an hour before he was called. Defense counsel talked with him and was aware of what his testimony would be. When defense counsel objected to his testimony on the basis of the non-disclosure order, the trial judge offered the defense counsel more time to talk with the proposed witness. Defense counsel did not ask for a continuance and denied the offer to interview made by the court. Having declined the offer, defense counsel cannot now claim error.”
