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 42 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"(1) whether the [declarant] was talking about 'events as they were actually happening rather than describ[ing] past events'; (2) whether any reasonable listener would recognize that the [declarant] was facing an 'ongoing emergency'; (3) whether what was asked and answered was, viewed objectively, 'necessary to be able to resolve the present emergency, rather than simply to learn ... what had happened in the past,' including whether it was necessary for [police] to know the identity of the alleged perpetrator; and (4) the 'level of formality' of the interview (emphasis in original)."”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“a reasonable person in the declarant's position would anticipate the statement[s'] being used against the accused in investigating and prosecuting a crime.”
