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.
“First, the defendant must raise a Batson challenge with regard to one or more specific venirepersons struck by the state and identify the cognizable ... group to which the venireperson or persons belong. The trial court will then require the state to come forward with reasonably specific and clear [gender]neutral explanations for the strike. Assuming the prosecutor is able to articulate an acceptable reason for the strike, the defendant will then need to show that the state’s proffered reasons for the strikes were merely pretextual and that the strikes were [gender] motivated.”
