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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The exercise of improperly delegated authority by a probation officer cannot make the delegation effective, although on different facts, where parties over a period of time have accepted such a delegation of authority as shown by the course of conduct between them, a probationer may be estopped from objecting to being held to the duty assumed.””
3 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. Aguilar v. State · Tillis v. State““The condition in the probation order that he report to the probation officer ‘as directed’ was not enforceable because it did not specify when he was to report and it was an unlawful delegation of authority of the probation officer to direct him to report.””
