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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Any objection made to this question, either of form or of substance, was waived by the subsequent conduct of appellants. [ 7 ] Dr. H. N. Moyer was called by them as an expert witness. In his examination they asked him: ‘Q. Now you heard the hypothetical question which was put this morning, * * *? A. Yes, I heard it read. ‘Q. Do you recall it well enough so that you can give us an opinion upon it? A. Yes, I think I have reasonably good recollection of it.’ “Thereupon, in a response to a further question, the doctor gave his opinion based upon the supposed facts contained in that hypothetical question. The same course was pursued in the examination in chief of Dr. Learning, an expert witness called by appellants. “It does not require the citation of authorities to establish the proposition that appellants, having adopted and used this identical hypothetical question in the examination of their expert witnesses, will not be heard to say in this court that its use by ap-pellee [ 8 ] was reversible error.””
