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 49 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “we must view all of the evidence in the light most favorable to the government, crediting every inference that could have been drawn in the government’s favor. Where there are conflicts in the testimony, we must defer to the jury’s resolution of the weight of the evidence and the credibility of the witnesses.”

  2. “A court must ... make two specific factual findings before it can properly enhance a defendant's offense level under § 3B1.1(a): (i) that the defendant was `an organizer or leader,' and (ii) that the criminal activity ... `involved five or more participants' or `was otherwise extensive.'”

  3. “[i]n assessing whether an organization is ‘otherwise extensive,’ all persons involved during the course of the entire offense are to be considered. Thus, a fraud that involved only three participants but used the unknowing services of many outsiders could be considered extensive.”
