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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Now it will be seen that the first conviction and punishment of appellant for unlawful selling was not a former offense under Chapter 214, Laws of 1912; therefore, he should not have been punished in the present prosecution as for a second conviction. Bnt the indictment stated sufficiently the charge of unlawful selling, and a conviction thereunder necessarily included-a conviction of a first offense committed after the passage of the act. While his conviction was legal, yet it may be that the court, in passing sentence upon him, followed the provision of punishment for conviction of a second offense. Appellant may be heard to complain, therefore, of his sentence in this case, and we conclude that the case should be remanded to the trial court, in order that a new sentence may be pronounced.” Boroum v. State, 105 Miss. 887 ( 63 So. 297 ).”
