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 66 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“`All persons concerned in the commission of a crime ... are principals' and, when two or more are `concerned,' they are bound by the acts and declarations of each other, when such acts and declarations are part of the `transaction' in which they are engaged, because they are `principals' and not because they are conspirators.... The liability of a defendant for a criminal act is fixed by the provisions of section 31 of the Penal Code defining principals; and no instruction on the subject of conspiracy can add anything to that liability.... Liability attaches to anyone `concerned,' however slight such concern may be, for the law establishes no degree of the concern required to fix liability as a principal.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage““It was contended that notwithstanding proof of encumbrances as to part, the balance was of sufficient value to protect the loan. Such argument was then, and is now, beside the issue. If all of the property was fraudulently represented as unencumbered, the fact that part of it was actually free and clear and sufficiently valuable to protect the loan, is no defense.” 65 Cal. App.2d at 659 , 151 P.2d at 320 .”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Mills““In conformity with the preceding provisions, evidence may be given upon a trial of the following facts: “6.
