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.
““The appellant also contests the propriety of convictions upon multiple charges, i.e., breaking and entering with intent to commit petit larceny, and attempt to kidnap, based upon what he claims was the same criminal transaction. It is apparent, however, that there was presented in this case a situ ation involving, in fact, two severable and distinct criminal acts or offenses, which occurred on the occasion of the unlawful invasion of the premises, and we have no difficulty in reconciling the cases cited on the point. Compare Simmons v. State, 151 Fla. 778 , 10 So. 2d 436 , with Brown v. State, 135 Fla. 90 , 184 So. 777 . See also 22 C.J.S., Criminal Law, § 285, p. 427.””
