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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"Since the imposition of sentence is a matter peculiarly within the province of the trial judge, the general rule is that he may inquire into any information pertaining to the defendant in order to give a fair sentence. Gee v. State, 2 Md. App. 61, 68 . He may consider the defendant’s entire background, including prior convictions. Miller v. State, supra. See Thomas v. State, 2 Md. App. 645 .””
