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 18 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Under the general rule of statutory construction, expressio unius est exclusio alteráis, the express mention of one matter excludes other similar matters not mentioned. Since the statute specifically excepts certain proceedings from its prohibition [e.g., that, once substituted against, a judge may not act again in the case except in certain stated limited proceedings] ... all proceedings not excepted are included in the prohibition.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage““971.20 Substitution of judge. ... (2) Upon the filing of the request in proper form and within the proper time the judge named in the request has no authority to act further in the case except to conduct the initial appearance, accept pleas of not guilty, and set bail. Except as provided in subs. (7) and (8), no more than one judge may be substituted in any action.””
