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 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In State v. Johnson, 94-1379 (La. 11/27/95), 664 So.2d 94 .... during the prosecution’s impeachment of the defendant, the prosecution misstated the true nature of defendant’s convictions, referring to the crimes for which the defendant had been charged rather than the crimes for which the defendant had actually been convicted. The prosecutor in the present case was not in error in stating that the accused had prior drug convictions, but rather his error was a mere technical misstatement of the crimes for which the defendant had been convicted. As such, it could not have contributed to defendant’s verdict.”
