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.

“Article 1.15 only refers to felony cases less than capital. It makes no mention of misdemeanors, but it does refer to Tex.Code Crim.Pro.Ann. art. 1.13, which applies to waiver of jury trial and sets forth the same requirements of Article 1.15 as to being in writing and signed by the defendant and approved by the trial court. It has been consistently held that Article 1.13 does not apply to misdemeanors and the waiver of trial by jury does not have to be in writing. Schultze v. State, 626 S.W.2d 89 (Tex.App.—Corpus Christi 1981, PDRR); Lamb v. State, 409 S.W.2d 418 (Tex.Crim.App.1966).”
