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

  1. “Id. at 754 . Goodwin stayed at Wampler's home to guard against a burglary while Wampler was in the hospital recovering from a stroke. Wadsworth admits that he and Davis tried to enter the home through a basement window before approaching the front door of the home. Goodwin's body was discovered near the couch where he normally slept with a gun next to him. (R. at 839, 878, State's Exh. 18.) The door that Goodwin used to let visitors into Wampler's home was locked, and the front door was ajar. As we said in Davis,”

  2. “[This evidence allowed a reasonable inference that [the defendant's) entry was unauthorized. Moreover, we think it implausible that a man occupying a home solely to guard against entry of potential burglars would willingly let two strangers in the front door.”
