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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"The constitutional provision entitling the accused in criminal prosecutions to a trial `by an impartial jury of the county or district in which the offense was committed' was contained in the constitution of 1868, and, as there existing was construed in Grogan v. State , 44 Ala. 9 [(1870)], as not prohibiting the legislature to fix the venue for trial in either of two counties where an offense was within a quarter of a mile of their dividing line. In Jackson's Case , [ 90 Ala. 590 , 8 So. 862 (1891)], it was held that such construction should be presumed to have been acted on by the framers of the constitution of 1875 when they adopted the same clause in the latter instrument, and on that principle the statute now section 4972 of the Code was held valid. Thus a question which if original might have been doubtful, must be considered as settled."”
