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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The flaw in Mr. Lee's argument is his failure to appeal the August 1993 sentence when it was initially imposed. If he had done so, we would have reversed the sentence and remanded for resentencing. At that resentencing, however, he could have received 17 years in prison rather than community control. By accepting the benefit of community control, he waived his right to enforce the earlier true split sentence.”
