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

  1. ““The information, after stating the court in which it was filed and that the county attorney was the county attorney of Cowley county, alleged that the defendant ‘then and there’ did the things charged. The information was then signed by the county attorney. The affidavit of the county attorney to the information was sworn to in Cowley county before the clerk of the district court. The defendant was not and could not have'been misled by the information. It completely charged the offense, but it may be that it defectively stated where the offense had been committed. That defect, if it were a defect, was a very technical one. It did not violate any substantial right of the defendant. A valid judgment could have been pronounced upon conviction under the first information.” (p. 249.)”
