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 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Because maximum sentences are reserved for the worst offenders, a trial court’s compliance with the sentencing guidelines of LSA-C.Cr.P. art. 894.1 is absolutely essential where a near maximum sentence is imposed. Lacking evidence of the trial court’s compliance with C.Cr.P. art. 894.1, it is difficult if not impossible for this court to effectively review a claim of excessiveness of the sentence.”
