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 31 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[T]he question next arises how the trial courts should proceed after remand. Each of the appellants appears to believe he is entitled simply to have the "injury" points deleted and his sentence thereby reduced. We stop short of such a requirement. Nothing in the Karchesky decision suggests that a sex offender, like any other convicted felon, should not be penalized for inflicting physical injury. Accordingly, we believe the trial courts may conduct a de novo sentencing hearing at which time the extent of the actual injury may be debated by the parties.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“The specific length of the sentence ... was made a specific condition of the plea. Although a guideline scoresheet was prepared one which ... coincides with the actual sentence it is not certain that the state agreed, in addition to reducing the charges, that [appellant] should receive a guideline-consistent sentence.”
