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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Plea bargain” is ... a term of art that should be used with care and precision. In Gray v. State, 38 Md.App. 343, 356 [ 380 A.2d 1071 ] (1977), this Court, speaking through Judge Wilner, defined this term of art: “Traditionally, a ‘plea bargain’ or ‘plea agreement’ contemplates a conditional plea of guilty or nolo contendere to one or more pending charges, the condition usually being either the dismissal or lessening of other charges by one means or another, or some concession being made with respect to disposition, or both.””
