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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Under § 3-831, a two pronged examination must be made by the trial judge. Initially, it must be determined that an adult willfully contributed to, encouraged, caused or tended to cause an act, omission or condition. Secondly, it must be determined that the act, omission or condition rendered a child delinquent, in need of supervision, or in need of assistance. Both aspects must be proved beyond a reasonable doubt. Maryland Rule 914(e)(2). # * * * * * “In order to convict Simpson, as charged, it would have to be shown that the child had committed an act which would be a crime if committed by an adult and that the child ‘required guidance, treatment or rehabilitation.’ ” (Emphasis in original.)”
