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 57 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““(H) The period of any continuance granted on the accused’s own motion, and the period of any reasonable continuance granted other than upon the accused’s own motion.””
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“[t]he time within which an accused must be brought to trial, or, in the case of felony, to preliminary hearing and trial, may be extended only by the following: * * * any period of delay occasioned by the neglect or improper act of the accused[,] and * * * [t]he period of any continuance granted on the accused's own motion, and the period of any reasonable continuance granted other than upon the accused's own motion[.]”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““* * * The record indicates that the trial court assigned the May 30th trial date as a matter of convenience, because it understood that both the prosecution and. the defense counsel were available on that date, and defense counsel agreed to it. The record also indicates that, if the appellant’s [defendant’s] motion to .dismiss were overruled, the. appellant’s counsel desired an additional delay to locate alibi witnesses. This fact clearly indicates the lack of prejudice to the appellant from the delay in trial.””
