The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

“"If the court determines that a witness is hostile or unwilling, he may be examined by the party calling him as if under cross-examination. The party calling an occurrence witness, upon the showing that he called the witness in good faith and is surprised by his testimony, may impeach the witness by proof of prior inconsistent statements."”
