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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The Supreme Court of Florida held in Hughes v. State, 901 So.2d 837 (Fla.2005), that Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466 , 120 S.Ct. 2348 , 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), did not apply retroactively. It did not address the retroactivity of Blakely , but, on the authority above, we conclude that there is no retroactivity of this decision either. Appellant’s sentences became final in 2002, pre-Blakely but post-Apprendi Since his challenge is based on Blakely , and as it is not retroactive, we conclude that the trial court did not err in rejecting this claim.”
