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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"`Fundamental error is error that, if not rectified, would deny a defendant fundamental due process. Johnson v. State (1979), 271 Ind. 145 , 390 N.E.2d 1005 . It is not enough, in order to invoke this doctrine, to urge that a constitutional right is implicated. Only when the record reveals clearly blatant violations of basic and elementary principles, and the harm or potential for harm could not be denied, will this Court review an issue not properly raised and preserved. Nelson v. State (1980), 274 Ind. 218 , 409 N.E.2d 637 .'"”
