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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“It is incumbent upon one claiming impropriety during argument to immediately interpose an objection. . . . The purpose of the requirement is to call the problem to the attention of the court and to provide the court with an ample opportunity to deal with it. . . . [T]he trial court ought to have been afforded the opportunity to strike “promptly and forcefully” at the essence of the claimed error.”
