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.
“In recent cases, we have made clear the proposition that credit for presentence confinement does not include any credit for confinement that would persist without regard to the defendant's ability to post bond in the court in which he is awaiting sentence. Wayt v. State, 912 P.2d 1106 (Wyo.1996); Wilson v. State, 896 P.2d 1327 (Wyo.1995). In Wilson, it was clear that Wilson would have remained in custody on another charge even if he had posted bond on the charge for which he sought presen-tence confinement credit. In Wayt Wayt was held in Platte County on different charges than the one for which he was awaiting sentence in Natrona County. Under the circumstances, no credit was required.”
