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

  1. “A trial judge enjoys a great deal of discretion as to the relevance and admissibility of evidence. Hughes v. State, 735 So.2d 238 (¶ 134) (Miss.1999). However, the discretion of the trial judge must be exercised according to the Mississippi Rules of Evidence. Johnston v. State, 567 So.2d 237, 238 (Miss.1990). We will only reverse a trial court's determination concerning the relevancy or admissibility of evidence if an abuse of discretion existed. Jefferson v. State, 818 So.2d 1099 (¶ 6) (Miss.2002).”
