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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “`The factual basis [can be] established, in part, by the appellant's admission that he knew to what offense he was pleading guilty.'”
    2 later decisions quote this exact passage
  2. “The Alexander decision, however, is distinguishable from the present case because of two important factors. In Alexander , the appellant was a participant in a work release program and was convicted of first degree escape. In the case sub judice , the appellant was convicted of second degree escape for wilfully failing to return to his 'place of residence,' where he was confined as a participant in the 'Supervised Intensive Restitution,' or 'S.I.R.,' program.”

  3. “By statute, an inmate who willfully fails to abide by the confining restrictions imposed upon him by the S.I.R. program will be considered to have 'escaped' from the 'custody' of a 'penal facility.' Thus, the appellant was properly convicted of the offense of second degree escape.”
