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 25 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“As a second felony offender with an underlying conviction of simple burglary, defendant’s sentencing range was six to twenty-four years. Thus, defendant’s six year sentence is half of the twelve year sentence he could have received upon a first conviction of simple burglary and, by law, is the minimum sentence he could receive as a second felony offender. * * * [W]e find that not only was defendant’s six year sentence as a double felony offender well within the discretion of the trial court, it was the statutory minimum, and it is not constitutionally excessive.”
