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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“inconsistent with ... a substantial period of imprisonment”
2 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. Ison v. State · Joseph v. State“Alaska Statute 12.55.155(d)(13) calls for a two-prong determination: first, the court must determine on a case-by-case basis that the defendant's present and prior crimes are consistently minor; second, the court must find that the past and present crimes, taken as a whole, are inconsistent with a sub-stantial term of imprisonment. Because the first prong of factor (d)(13) focuses on the seriousness of [the defendant's] current and past crimes, requiring a finding of minor harm for each offense, our conclusion that his current offense is not among the least serious in its class precludes finding that the mitigating factor has been established.”
