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

  1. ““The facts of this case are similar to State v. Eaton, 504 S.W.2d 12 (Mo.1973), which involved a conversation between the complaining witness and a juror. In Eaton, the Missouri Supreme Court stated: There has been no showing that anything relating to the case on trial was discussed during the conversation or that any prejudice to appellant’s rights resulted ... ‘While the conduct of a prosecuting witness in even innocently visiting with the jurors is to be avoided, nevertheless, the court had broad discretion in determining whether a mistrial should be declared.’ Id. at 22 (quoting State v. Miles, 364 S.W.2d 532, 536 (Mo.1963)). The opinion then affirmed the trial court’s refusal to grant a mistrial.” State v. Cantrell, 775 S.W.2d 319, 323 (Mo.App.1989).”

  2. “If you find and believe from the evidence that defendant (was convicted of) (was found guilty of) (pled guilty to) (pled nolo contendere to) the offense of [.specify the offense ], you may consider that evidence for the sole purpose of deciding the believability of the defendant and the weight to be given to his testimony and for no other purpose. (You must not consider such previous (conviction) (finding of guilt) (plea of guilty) (plea of nolo contendere) as any evidence that the defendant is guilty of any offense for which he is now on trial.)”
