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

  1. “[[Image here]] A person “acts recklessly” or is reckless when he consciously disregards a substantial and unjustifiable risk that circumstances exist or that a result will follow, and such disregard constitutes a gross deviation from the standard of care which a reasonable person would exercise in the situation.”
    3 later decisions quote this exact passage
    e.g. State v. Baldwin · State v. Isreal
  2. ““[The accused’s] attack on [the victim] was deliberate, not accidental, and even if [the accused], as he says, had no desire to kill [the victim], such a result followed. Since the assault, by fists and feet, was a means likely to produce death, [the accused] is presumed to have intended that death would follow his acts.””
    2 later decisions quote this exact passage
    e.g. State v. Ponder · State v. Arbuckle
