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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The code provisions undertake to deal with the subject in detail, defining the mode of procedure with much particularity, and yet no provision is made therein for an appeal from the finding of the circuit judge. Whether the lawmakers. failed to make such a provision because they intended that, ultimate power should be rested with the circuit, judge, or whether they regarded any order which he might make as an interlocutory one, and not a. final order, and therefore not subject to appeal, we do not know; but certain it is that there is no statutory authority in this state authorizing an appeal. The order of the court is not final, for the judge has control over it during its legal existence, to wit, the: time the bond has to run.””
