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.

(e) The judge shall allow the defendant or his attorney to comment on a presentence investigation ... and, with the approval of the judge, introduce testimony or other information alleging a factual inaccuracy in the investigation or report.”
