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 82 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[t]he constitutional immunity from double jeopardy is a personal right which, if not affirmatively pleaded by the defendant at the time of trial, will be regarded as waived.”
6 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. In re J. A. H. · In Re JAH“[T]he fact that the first jury was unable to agree as to the robbery count is fatal to [defendant's] notion that the acquittal of armed robbery was based on a finding that he was not the robber. The verdict of not guilty of armed robbery was clearly based on a doubt whether the robber was armed, and not at all upon a finding that [the defendant] was not the robber. That is to say, the first jury found the [defendant] was not an armed robber, but was unable to agree as to whether he was an unarmed robber.”
