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 29 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“because imposition of any sentence within the statutory limit, whether or not the sentence exceeds the recommended range, is still a matter within the trial court's discretion. Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.701(b)(6). Of course, that discretion is subject to the "clear and convincing" standard, but it does not follow that a defendant is therefore entitled to the full panoply of due process rights every time a trial court announces it intends to aggravate a sentence beyond the recommended range.”
