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 33 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Appellant did not plead not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect excluding responsibility for the acts charged nor did he give written notice of his intent to rely on such defense. He was not entitled to and did not receive the .030 examination nor could his .020 examination be treated by the court as an .030 examination. It was not error for the court to fail to give [MAI-CR3d 300.20] in this case.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage““2.36 Mental Responsibility: Limitation of Expert Testimony You will recall that (a doctor) (certain doctors) testified to certain statements that (he) (they) said were made to (him) (them) and certain information that (he) (they) said had been received by (him) (them) during or in connection with (his) (their) inquiry into the mental condition of the defendant. In that connection the court instructs you that evidence of such statements and information, which the doctor(s) said were received by (him) (them), was admitted solely on the issue of the mental condition of the defendant at the time of the offense charged against him. Under no circumstances should you consider the (doctor’s) (doctors’) testimony about the statements or the information, which (he says he received) (they say they received), as evidence that the defendant did or did not commit the acts charged against the defendant.””

THE COURT: [Court reporter], let your record show that [defense counsel] has informed the court he withdraws his motion; is that correct [defense counsel]? [DEFENSE COUNSEL]: Yes, Your Honor. Section 552.030 reads, in pertinent part: 1. A person is not responsible for criminal conduct if at the time of such conduct as a result of mental disease or defect he did not know or appreciate the nature, quality or wrongfulness of his conduct or was incapable of conforming his conduct to the requirements of law. 2. Evidence of mental disease or defect excluding responsibility shall not be admissible at trial of the defendant unless the defendant at the time of entering his plea to the charge pleads not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect excluding responsibility, or unless within ten days after a plea of not guilty or at such later date as the court may for good cause permit, he files a written notice of his purpose to rely on such defense. Such a plea or notice shall not deprive the defendant of other defenses.... 3. Evidence that the defendant did or did not suffer from a mental disease or defect shall be admissible: (1) To prove that the defendant did or did not have a state of mind which is an element of the offense....”
