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

  1. “[T]he evidence was woefully insufficient to support the defendant’s conviction. Other than the fact that the defendant had $1429.00 cash in his possession, the State presented absolutely no evidence that he was a participant in either the sale or delivery of marijuana, possession of marijuana, or a conspiracy to sell marijuana. The only evidence the State presented against Morejon was that he was involved in conversations with others discussing the sale of “shirts” for “17.” The officers’ explanation that “shirts” was a code word for heroin or contraband was insufficient to establish that the parties were indeed negotiating the sale or delivery of a pound of marijuana. No one ever observed Morejon in possession of the white plastic bag containing the marijuana, delivering the marijuana to one of the other participants, involved in the instant negotiations, or exchanging the $1429.00 cash for the sale of the marijuana.”
