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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““. . . The preliminary examination in a felony case is not a trial in the sense that word ordinarily is used. (16 C. J. 316, 323.) It is purely statutory, since it was unknown at common law. (16 C. J. 314.) It is not judicial, and authority to conduct such examination may be vested in persons other than courts (16 C. J. 319), such as mayors (R. S. 62-201). . . .” (l. c. 685.)”
