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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“When a prospective juror ultimately states unequivocally that he can be impartial, and when the entirety of the voir dire makes it reasonable for the court to believe the potential juror, the court’s exercise of discretion on a motion to strike for cause should not be disturbed on appeal. [Citation omitted.] However, this rule has no application where the answers of the prospective juror are equivocal and disclose uncertainty about his ability to be impartial.”
