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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is axiomatic, however that a conviction for theft cannot rest in whole or in part upon the theft of property not alleged in the indictment to have been stolen. The indictment in the instant case alleged theft of a camera only, not any case or accessories.” “When the only testimony as to total value states an amount including the value of items not alleged to have been stolen, there is in effect no evidence whatsoever that the value of the items so alleged was over the amount necessary to support the conviction. To permit a conviction to stand where the State has utterly failed to present any evidence upon an essential element of the offense is a denial of due process of law.””
