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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Rhodes sets out four hazards which may result from judicial warnings and admonitions to a witness. First, the trial judge may invade the province of the jury by assessing the witness's credibility. Second, a witness may change the testimony due to a judge's threat of prosecution for perjury. Third, defendant's attorney may be intimidated or discouraged from eliciting essential testimony from the witness. Fourth, a judge's comments may reveal a violation of defendant's due process right to trial before an impartial judge.”
