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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The better procedure in a Rule 27.26 proceeding is for the [motion] court, after movant has obtained either retained or appointed counsel, to give written notice of its intention to rule on a specific date on the issue of whether an eviden-tiary hearing will be granted. The time period allotted should be commensurate with the time necessary for movant’s counsel to confer with his client and to amend the petition in a lawyer-like manner. Oral argument should be accorded to the parties if requested, consistent with local court rules. This would ensure an orderly procedure consistent with due process.”
