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. “The standard for review in challenging a jury instruction is well settled: “In determining whether error lies in the granting or refusal of various instructions, the instructions actually given must be read as a whole[; wjhen so read, if the instructions fairly announce the law of the case and create no injustice, no reversible error will be found.” Moreover, “[a] defendant is entitled to have jury instructions given which present his theory of the case[;] however, this entitlement is limited in that the court may refuse an instruction which incorrectly states the law, is covered fairly elsewhere in the instructions, or is without foundation in the evidence.””
