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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"It is not the duty of a sentencing court to inquire into whether a prior conviction did or did not comply with Boykin and Ireland [v. State, 47 Ala. App. 65 , 250 So.2d 602 (Ala.Cr.App. 1971)]. It is only required that it affirmatively appear that the accused was represented by counsel in those cases resulting in the prior convictions. A felony sentencing hearing is not the time to collaterally attack the validity of a prior conviction. Jones v. State , 431 So.2d 1367 (Ala.Cr.App. 1983)."”
