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 38 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"Once warnings have been given, the subsequent procedure is clear. If the individual indicates in any manner, at any time prior to or during questioning, that he wishes to remain silent, the interrogation must cease. At this point he has shown that he intends to exercise his Fifth Amendment privilege; any statement taken after the person invokes his privilege cannot be other than the product of compulsion, subtle or otherwise. Without the right to cut off questioning, the setting of in-custody interrogation operates on the individual to overcome free choice in producing a statement after the privilege has been once invoked. If the individual states that he wants an attorney, the interrogation must cease until an attorney is present. At that time, the individual must have an opportunity to confer with the attorney and to have him present during any subsequent question. If the individual cannot obtain an attorney and he indicates that he wants one before speaking to police, they must respect his decision to remain silent."”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage““It has been widely recognized that Pate v. Robinson [ 383 U.S. 375 , 86 S.Ct. 836 , 15 L.Ed.2d 815 ] does not create an absolute right to a psychiatric examination . . . . The real issue to be resolved in cases such as this is whether the evidence presented to the trial judge is sufficient to raise a ‘bona-fide doubt’ as to the defendant’s competence to stand trial, Pate v. Robinson, supra. In other words, there must be some indication to the trial judge that competency to stand Trial is a substantial issue before a referral of the defendant to a psychiatric examination is required.” Hill v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 429 S.W.2d 481, 483 , quoting from Tyler v. Beto, 391 F.2d 993 (5th Cir. 1968).”
