Most-quoted passages

These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“some evidence that defendant understood that the charges were serious, there is no evidence that he was informed of the nature of the charges and the range of permissible'punishments or that he understood and appreciated the consequences of proceeding without counsel. Absent such evidence, the court should not have permitted him to proceed pro se.”
