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

1. “1. Trial pending. Whenever a person has entered upon a term of imprisonment in a penal or correctional institution of a party state, and whenever during the continuance of the term of imprisonment there is pending in any other party state any untried indictment ... on the basis of which a detainer has been lodged against the prisoner, he shall be brought to trial within 180 days after he shall have caused to be delivered to the prosecuting officer and the appropriate court of the prosecuting officer’s jurisdiction written notice of the place of his imprisonment and his request for final disposition to be made of the indictment.... The request of the prisoner shall be accompanied by a certificate of the appropriate official having custody of the prisoner, stating the term of commitment under which the prisoner is being held, the time already served, the time remaining to be served on the sentence, the amount of good time earned, the time of parole eligibility of the prisoner and any decisions of the state parole agency relating to the prisoner.”

2. “The Sixth Amendment guarantees the assistance of counsel at trial and at “earlier, critical stages in the criminal justice process where the results might well settle the accused’s fate and reduce the trial to a mere formality. Maine v. Moulton, 474 U.S. 159, 170 , 106 S.Ct. 477, 484 , 88 L.Ed.2d 481 (1985) (citations and quotations omitted). “Whatever else it may mean, the right to counsel granted by the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments means at least that a person is entitled to the help of a lawyer at or after the time that judicial proceedings have been initiated against him....” Brewer v. Williams, 430 U.S. 387, 398 , 97 S.Ct. 1232, 1239 , 51 L.Ed.2d 424 (1977). Moreover, after the initiation of formal charges, the Sixth Amendment guarantees the accused “the right to rely on counsel as a ‘medium’ between him and the State.” Maine v. Moulton, 474 U.S. at 176 , 106 S.Ct. at 487 .”
