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.
“. . our post-conviction proceeding includes the former habeas corpus action which, for certain purposes at least, was considered a ‘civil’ rather than a criminal matter, State v. LaFera, 42 N. J. 97, 101 (1964). Nonetheless by a post-conviction claim a defendant seeks ‘to undo his conviction and ‘to renew the criminal controversy,’ . . . We think, when the issue is whether compensation is to be paid, it would be artificial to say a post-conviction attack is no part of the murder case.’” (pp. 419-420.)”
