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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The Batson holding is clearly limited to eases in which “the prosecutor has exercised peremptory challenges to remove from the venire members of the defendant’s race.” [ 476 U.S. at 96 ] 106 S.Ct. at 1723 (emphasis added). In this ease the defendant is white; therefore, he can not avail himself of the Batson holding by his claim that the prosecutor removed blacks from the venire.”
