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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Because it is essential that the State prove the arrest was lawful [for the offense of resisting arrest], the trial judge erred in refusing, over defense counsel’s objection, to instruct the jury on the issue.... In fact, the judge specifically instructed the jury not to consider the legality of the arrest.... In addition, when the jury requested the judge to reinstruct them on the offense [of resisting arrest], he reiterated his original instruction verbatim.”
