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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“'There is no definite criterion or measure of proof necessary to justify the revocation of one's probation.' Wright v. State , 349 So.2d 124 (Ala.Cr.App. 1977). The evidence need not 'be strong enough *Page 834 to convince the court beyond a reasonable doubt that the probationer has violated a term of his probation,' Carter v. State 389 So.2d 601 (Ala.Cr.App. 1980); it needs only to reasonably satisfy the court of the truth of the charge. Goodrum v. State , 418 So.2d 942 (Ala.Cr.App. 1982). Absent a gross abuse of discretion, the trial court's ruling in a probation revocation will not be disturbed by this Court. Wright , supra.”
