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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“No appellate court shall review any sentence which is imposed within the minimum and maximum punishment if: (a) For class 2 and class 3 felonies, the minimum sentence imposed is not more than three years greater than the minimum provided for the offense; (b) For class 4 felonies, .the minimum sentence imposed is no more than four years; (c) For class 5 felonies, the minimum sentence imposed is no more than two years.”
