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

  1. “Although we have no need to reach the merits of appellant’s broader claim that the double jeopardy clause prohibits declaration of a mistrial without first inquiring of the jury whether it has reached verdicts on each included offense, we acknowledge that it raises serious questions. The issue has been discussed by the appellate courts of nine states, including as a result of this action, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. In support of appellant’s position, see Stone v. Superior Court of San Diego County, 31 Cal.3d 503 , 183 Cal.Rptr. 647 , 646 P.2d 809 (1983); State v. Pugliese, 120 N.H. 728 , 422 A.2d 1319 (1980); State v. Castrillo, 90 N.M. 608 , 566 P.2d 1146 (1977). But see State v. Booker, 306 N.C. 302, 293 S.E.2d 78 (1982); People v. Hickey, 103 Mich.App. 350 , 303 N.W.2d 19 (1981); People v. Hall, 25 Ill.App.3d 992 , 324 N.E.2d 50 (1975); Walters v. State, 255 Ark. 904 , 503 S.W.2d 895 (1974); State v. Hutter, 145 Neb. 798 , 18 N.W.2d 203 (1945). The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court found against appellant on this issue. A Juvenile v. Commonwealth, 392 Mass. 52 , 465 N.E.2d 240 (1984).”
