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.
“Defendant, on appeal to this Court, would question the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the conviction, and contend that the magazine in question was not in fact obscene. We are precluded from passing upon the substantive question which defendant attempts to raise. When defendant paid the fine in full which had been imposed, there was a complete compliance with the sentence of the court; the questions became moot; the matter was at an end, and no right of appeal existed thereafter from the satisfied judgment and sentence. . . . The sentence imposed constituted the final judgment of the court. By the payment of the fine this was satisfied. Defendant now seeks to *Page 138 raise a mere moot question.”
