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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"We agree with appellant that the statutory definition of sexual contact seems to contemplate that sexual contact occurs when the accused touches the victim's genitals, and not vice versa. However, the statutory definition of indecency with a child provides that a person commits an offense if he `engages in sexual contact with the child ...' By grabbing the complainants and forcing them to `touch and scrub' appellant's penis, appellant engaged in sexual contact with the complainants." (Emphasis in original.) Jacquez, supra, at 249 .”
