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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The [motion] court was clearly erroneous in denying [movant’s] motion ... under Rule 27.26 without granting an evidentiary hearing ... because the record leaves a firm conviction that a mistake had been made in entering such judgment in that [movant] claimed that he was denied effective assistance of counsel, and he pleaded numerous factual allegations in support of that claim which, if proved, would warrant relief and which are not refuted by the record.””
