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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“protect the public by preventing the possession of firearms by persons who, because of their past conduct, have demonstrated their unfitness to be entrusted with such dangerous instrumentalities.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“following an adjudication of guilt in the trial court.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“[I]n the instant case, the conviction for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon is based solely on the validity of the appellant’s conviction for battery, which was reversed on appeal. Convictions which are reversed are considered a nullity. Therefore, since there is no predicate conviction upon which the charge of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon can be based, the conviction must necessarily be vacated.”
