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 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The affidavits on file show that appellant .was moving in the matter with reasonable diligence and the papers would have been delivered in time but for an accident that occurred in the printing establishment, where the abstract and brief were being printed, whereby the presses broke down and the work was delayed. Tinder the circumstances, the appellant was not in fault, and. therefore, the motion to affirm for failure to comply with the rules is overruled.””
1 later decision quote this exact passage““But when the motion for a new trial was sustained, the cause was at issue for trial again, the court had no authority to enter a judgment without another trial. “Granting a new trial put the case in condition, so far as that court was concerned, as if there had never been a trial, and no judgment could thereafter be rendered upon the merits until a trial was had.””
