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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Although defendant’s past is hardly crime-free, his only previous convictions have been for driving while intoxicated. While his history indicates arrests on a variety of charges, no disposition is indicated for any of them except the DWIs. Excepting those DWIs, defendant’s previous adult encounters with criminal activity were in 1978 and 1974, both over ten years prior to the instant offenses. Even though he was adjudicated a juvenile delinquent in 1968, his background report indicates that he completed his probation and was 117discharged. In addition, the record shows that he satisfactorily completed his probation following his second DWI in 1986. [[Image here]] Finally, we consider the circumstances giving rise to defendant’s arrest. The defendant made three separate sales to two different undercover officers approximately five hours apart. Two of these transactions apparently occurred virtually contemporaneously and the third transaction was a return visit by one of those officers later that same morning.”
