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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Appellate counsel, Katrina Conrad-Le-gler, rendered ineffective assistance by failing to raise in [Milton]’s direct appeal the following sub-proposition[ ] of trial counsel’s deficienc[i]es: ... Trial attorney, Joe Reynolds, rendered ineffective assistance by failing to inform [Milton] of a (pre-preliminary hearing) plea-bargain offer of 23 years on all counts until the day set for trial, and well after the plea offer had been withdrawn.”
