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.
“"Defendant argues that although the defense of duress is not available upon a charge defined in Ind.Code § 85-42 (which includes murder) it is, nevertheless available upon a charge of attempted murder. He reasons that the statute which defines duress and makes it available generally, excludes its use only specifically. One specific exclusion is as to 'a person who: * * * commited an offense against the person as defined in I.C. 85-42 He further argues that the crime of attempted murder is not defined in .C. 85-42, but in 1.C. 85-41-5-1 and that, therefore, the exelusion does not apply. The fallacy lies in the conclusion that .C. 85-41-5-1 defines the crime of attempted murder which, standing alone, it does not. It is definitive of the crime charged only when read in conjunction with 1.0. 85-42-1-1 (Murder). Attempted murder is, therefore, an offense against the person as defined in L.C. 85-42, and the defense of duress is expressly excluded."”
