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

  1. ““ ‘A trial court has broad discretion in formulating its jury instructions, providing they are an accurate reflection of the law and facts of the case.’ Coon v. State, 494 So.2d 184 (Ala.Crim.App.1986). ‘“When requested charges are either fairly and substantially covered by the trial judge’s oral charge or are confusing, misleading, ungrammatical, not predicated on a consideration of the evidence, argumentative, abstract, or a misstatement of the law, the trial judge may properly refuse to give such charges.”’ Ward v. State, 610 So.2d 1190, 1194 (Ala.Crim.App.1992) (quoting Ex parte Wilhite, 485 So.2d 787 (Ala.1986)).””
