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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “[The petitioner] does not satisfy his burden of demonstrating a “reasonable likelihood that the jury ... appli[ed] the challenged instructions in a way that prevented] the consideration of constitutionally relevant evidence.” Boyde v. California, 494 U.S. 370 , 371, 110 S.Ct. 1190 , 1191, 108 L.Ed.2d 316 (1990). The punishment phase issues allowed the jury to give mitigating effect to [the petitioner’s] alleged non-triggerman status if they chose to credit his version of the offense.”
