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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In order to make out a claim [of ineffective assistance of counsel] on a PCRA appeal, petitioner must show that “the underlying claim is of arguable merit; that counsel’s action or inaction was not grounded on any reasonable basis designed to effectuate his interest; and that the commission or omission so undermined the trial that the verdict is unreliable.” Commonwealth v. Szuchon, 534 Pa. 483 , 633 A.2d 1098, 1099 (1993).”
