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 40 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “"An unauthorized contact between the jurors and a witness [or other person] does not necessarily require the granting of a mistrial. It is within the discretion of the trial court to determine whether an improper contact between a juror and a witness [or other person] was prejudicial to the accused."”
    4 later decisions quote this exact passage
  2. “The rule [excluding evidence of other offenses] does not, however, exclude evidence of all other crimes, only those offered to show the accused's bad character.”

  3. “[t]he trial court conducted a proper hearing and concluded from the evidence that no prejudice resulted.”
