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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“... we are mindful of the trial court’s wide discretion in determining the qualifications of a prospective juror and its ruling will be disturbed on appeal only when clearly against the evidence and it constitutes an abuse of discretion ... Each case must be judged on its facts and the relevant voir dire must be considered in its entirety. Absence of an independent examination by the trial court justifies a more searching review by an appellate court of the challenged juror’s qualifications.”
