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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(2) The juror is not impartial, whatever the cause of his impartiality. An opinion or impression as to the guilt or innocence of the defendant shall not of itself be sufficient ground of challenge to a juror, if he declares, and the court is satisfied, that he can render an impartial verdict according to the law and the evidence; (3) The relationship, whether by blood, marriage, employment, friendship, or enmity between the juror and the defendant, the person injured by the offense, the district attorney, or defense counsel, is such that it is reasonable to conclude that it would influence the juror in arriving at a verdict.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“A requested special jury charge need not be given if it is included in the general charge or in another special jury charge. La. C. Cr. P. art. 807. The trial court did not err in refusing to give defendant's requested jury instructions because the concepts were included in his general charge. If the trial court were to have given the requested instruction it would have been repetitive.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“The testimony of a witness, including the testimony of a codefendant or accomplice, may be discredited by showing that the witness will benefit in some way by the defendant's conviction or acquittal, that the witness is prejudiced or that the witness has any other reasons or motive for not telling the truth. (Language added underlined.)”
