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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“If the state moves for summary judgment ... and offers affidavits and other proof that the petitioner’s claim is lacking in merit, a pro se petitioner may be required, after being advised of his rights and how to proceed, to offer counter affidavits or other proof to establish that material facts are genuinely disputed before he is afforded an evidentiary hearing. If, in such a situation, the petitioner fails to respond and offers no .reasonable explanation why he cannot respond, summary judgment may properly be entered against him.-”
