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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ . When a defendant has had a fair trial by an impartial jury and his guilt established, his right to a trial by jury has been guaranteed, and there is no denial of any constitutional protection if a separate jury fixes his punishment. The precedent has been clearly established in this State. See Huffman v. State [ 200 Tenn. 487 , 292 S.W.2d 738 ], supra; State v. Davis, 3 Tenn.Cr.App. 625, 466 S.W.2d 237 .””
