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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “As we noted earlier, the Florida Supreme Court has held that trial before a judge whose impartiality may reasonably be questioned "would present grave due process concerns," because "proceedings involving criminal charges ... must both be and appear to be fundamentally fair." Steinhorst, 636 So.2d at 500-01. We therefore conclude that defendant has satisfied that part of Lockhart defining prejudice as a showing that counsel's error rendered the trial fundamentally unfair—in this case because of the appearance and risk of judicial bias.”

  2. “A convicted defendant's claim that counsel's assistance was so defective as to require reversal of a conviction or death sentence has two components. First, the defendant must show that counsel's performance was deficient. This requires showing that counsel made errors so serious that counsel was not functioning as the "counsel" guaranteed the defendant by the Sixth Amendment. Second, the defendant must show that the deficient performance prejudiced the defense. This requires showing that counsel's errors were so serious as to deprive the defendant of a fair trial, a trial whose result is reliable. Unless a defendant makes both showings, it cannot be said that the conviction or death sentence resulted from a breakdown in the adversary process that renders the result unreliable.”

  3. “all ineffective assistance of counsel claims to be reviewed to determine whether ` the result of the proceeding was fundamentally unfair or unreliable, ' even when a defendant cannot show that the result at trial or the sentence imposed would have been different.”
