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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In the instant matter, the 1995 amendment to the statutory cleansing period did not eliminate any defense available under the law existing when the defendant committed the possession of stolen property and cocaine possession offenses in 1996, the only relevant crimes for purposes of this analysis. At the time of his arrest on April 28, 1996, defendant had been placed on notice by the State that the cleansing period had changed and he could no longer rely on the former five-year cleansing period which was applicable in 1985 at the time of his first conviction. There was no violation of the Ex Post Facto clause.”
