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 56 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“insanity is not a complete defense in a probation revocation hearing but is a mitigating factor which a court should consider when the issue is timely raised.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage““Whether the act which made the failure apparent was culpable or punishable is no concern of the revocation authority, which does not sit to punish. Its concern is whether the law has been obeyed, not whether it has been culpably broken. And, thus, it is that the same act at variance with the law may, for a variety of reasons, be the occasion of both a successful criminal defense and a parole revocation.””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“We do not suggest that, in other contexts, the probationer’s lack of fault in violating a term of probation would necessarily prevent a court from revoking probation.... Ultimately, it must be remembered that the [original] sentence was not imposed for a circumstance beyond the probationer’s control "but because he had committed a crime.””
