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 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“although neither specific nor general intent is present, there is such disregard of the interest of others that the offender's conduct amounts to a gross deviation of the standard of care expected to be maintained by a reasonably careful man under like circumstances.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“Unlike general or specific criminal intent, criminal negligence is essentially negative. Rather than requiring that the accused intend some consequence of his actions, criminal negligence is found from the accused's gross disregard for the consequences of his actions.”
