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 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“As to Durbin’s final contention, that she was not informed she would not have a right to appeal from the judgment imposed following her guilty plea, we have found no authority one way or another as to whether advice as to this particular consequence of a guilty plea is a prerequisite to effective acceptance of the plea.... But whether a guilty plea must be stricken in the absence of such advise we need not now decide.”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. Miller v. State“[Tfhe better practice would certainly be to advise the defendant that a right to appeal no longer exists in these circumstances.... The non-availability of that former statutory right, and its replacement by the discretionary application for leave to appeal is a consequence of a guilty plea of which we think a defendant should be informed when deciding whether to plead guilty.”
