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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[tjhree critical factors which should be considered in determining whether to permit use of a prior juvenile record for the purpose of showing bias are: “(1) the probationary status of the witness, (2) some suspicion focusing on the witness, and (3) the witness’s motives to please the prosecution.” When, in addition to the above factors, the witness is either the chief prosecution witness, the only eyewitness to the crime, or the only witness whose testimony connects the defendant with the crime, courts generally ought to allow cross-examination concerning the juvenile record and its introduction into evidence, (citations omitted).”
