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 174 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Moreover, even if there had been any incompetency on the part of defense counsel, it is questionable whether defendant in the instant case could complain on appeal. A defendant may complain at any time during the trial that his counsel is not adequately representing him thereby affording the trial court an opportunity to correct the situation, but if a defendant fails to avail himself of this privilege at the trial level, he cannot ordinarily after an adverse judgment first complain of the matter on appeal. (People v. Prado, 190 Cal.App.2d 374, 377 [ 12 Cal.Rptr. 141 ]; People v. Comstock, 147 Cal.App.2d 287, 299 [ 305 P.2d 288 ]; People v. Hood, 141 Cal.App.2d 585, 589-590 [ 297 P.2d 52 ].)”
