3 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Palmer · State v. Troy“(1) A person commits theft if he obtains or exercises control over property of another by deception and with a purpose to deprive him thereof. (2) Theft by deception does not occur, however, when there is only falsity as to matters having no pecuniary significance, or puffing by statements unlikely to deceive ordinary persons in the group addressed. “Puffing” means an exaggerated commendation of wares or worth in communications addressed to the public or to a class or group.”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Roberts“[W]e review the evidence and all inferences which may be reasonably drawn from it in the light most favorable to the verdict of the jury. We reverse a jury conviction for insufficient evidence only when the evidence, so viewed, is sufficiently inconclusive or inherently improbable that reasonable minds must have entertained a reasonable doubt that the defendant committed the crime of which he was convicted.”
