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.

“[Ijntent or state of mind is not an issue to be decided on a motion to dismiss under Rule 3.190(c)(4). Instead, it is usually inferred from the circumstances surrounding the defendant’s actions. Since the trier of fact has the opportunity to weigh the evidence and judge the credibility of the witnesses, it should determine intent or state of mind.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“"[t]he motion to dismiss in criminal practice is similar in many respects to the summary judgment in civil proceedings. The motion should be granted only where the most favorable construction of the facts to the state does not establish a prima facie case of guilt. If there is any evidence upon which a jury of reasonable men could convict, the court should deny the motion."”
