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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ * * * If a prosecutor inquires concerning a prior conviction and is unable to prove the conviction, a determination as to whether he acted improperly depends on the facts and circumstances. Here the record does not show whether the District Attorney was able to refute-the denial. In fact, the record does not disclose the nature of the District Attorney’s information concerning the prior forgery conviction. Accordingly, we do-not have sufficient information before us-to hold, as a matter of law, that the District Attorney acted improperly in asking about ‘any other’ convictions.””
