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

  1. “Section 40-2-101 was amended in 1985 to provide that certain sexual offenses against children must be “commenced no later than the date the child attains the age of majority or within four years next after the commission of the offense whichever occurs later.” Act of June 18, 1985, ch. 478, § 21,1985 Tenn.Pub.Acts 1094. However, contrary to the state’s contention, this amendment does not control any of the present prosecutions. (“For offenses committed prior to November 1, 1989, the limitation of prosecution in effect at that time shall govern.”)”
