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

  1. “We have carefully examined the eight-volume record and find that there are thirty (30) instances where the trial judge improperly, or unnecessarily, interjected himself into the proceedings. Of those thirty instances, twenty are of the type which may be characterized as coaching the district attorney. On nine occasions, the trial judge posed questions to witnesses where the district attorney’s questions were ineffective. The questions by the trial judge generally served to strengthen the prosecution’s case.”

  2. “Q. Okay. Let me see if I can refresh your memory. You don't remember anything about it now? A. What did I hit, or what hit me? Q. Okay. You don't remember? A. No. Q. That was in "76, about twelve years ago. Okay. Do you recall— BY THE COURT: (Interposing) Just a minute. I want him to take some time and answer that. I find it, quite frankly, incredible that you wouldn't remember that you had an accident. Let him have some time. I want him to answer that, one way or the other.”

  3. “Do ya’ll have a tag number? Put an all points bulletin out for him. Get a court order that he’s evading process or do anything. Otherwise, you’re gonna lose this case. And I’m not gonna take the blame for it.... Well, let’s just get an instanter out on him. And that way when you get him, you bring him to me. If I get him, I’ll know what to do with him.”
