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 62 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““All questions propounded were judicial in purpose (People v. Patubo, 9 Cal.2d 537 [ 71 P.2d 270 , 113 A.L.R. 1303 ]) and related to matters upon which defendant had been interrogated by his counsel; they were questions that would have been proper if asked by either defendant’s counsel or the district attorney. (People v. Ramos, 3 Cal.2d 269 [ 44 P.2d 301 ].) ‘A trial judge certainly is authorized on cross-examination of a defendant to call his attention to apparently conflicting statements which he has made so as to give him an opportunity to explain or reconcile them if possible. ’ (People v. Butterfield, 40 Cal.App.2d 725, 731 [ 105 P.2d 628 ].)””
