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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Drug Dealing in Cocaine, Count II. In order to find the defendant guilty of this charge, you must find the State has proved the following five elements beyond a reasonable doubt: 1. The defendant possessed a substance. 2. The substance possessed was Cocaine, or a mixture containing Cocaine, or had a chemical structure similar to Cocaine, or that it was designed to produce an effect substantially similar to Cocaine; 3. The defendant acted knowingly; 4. The defendant possessed 20 grams or more of the substance; and 5. When the defendant possessed the substance, he had the intent to deliver it. I previously have defined for you the terms "possession" and "knowingly," and those definitions apply to this charge as well. "Deliver" means the actual, constructive or attempted transfer from one person to another of an illegal or prohibited drug, either directly or through another person.”

State“Having found the instant instruction erroneous we must now determine whether it constitutes plain error since the defendant offered no objection to it at trial. Superior Court Criminal Rules 30(a) and 52(b).... It is our view that it is plain error to fail to instruct the jury on the necessary elements of the crime.”
