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 18 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Change of venue. The superior court in which the action is pending may change the place of trial in an action from one place to another place in the same judicial district or to a designated place in another judicial district for any of the following reasons: (1) when there is reason to believe that an impartial trial cannot be had; (2) when the convenience of witnesses and the ends of justice would be promoted by the change; (3) when for any cause the judge is disqualified from acting, but if the judge of another judicial district is assigned to try the action, no change of place of trial need be made; (4) if the court finds that the defendant will be put to unnecessary expense- and inconvenience, and if the court finds that the expense and inconvenience was-intentionally caused, the court may assess-costs against the plaintiff.”
