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 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Of course, this Court cannot render an opinion on the case without such documents (transcript of testimony or statement of facts) for there is nothing in the record on which to determine the validity of the judgment. However, appellant may get such a statement of facts in the record, in accordance with our rules, even after the transcript of appeal has been lodged here. Her failure to do this prior to submission of the case would be cause for affirmation of the judgment.””
