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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The failure or refusal of the lower court to' sign a bill tendered in time will not deprive a litigant of his right of appeal. When the judge refuses to sign the tendered bill, the proper course for counsel to pursue is to prepare a bystanders’ bill and have it certified. Commonwealth v. Hourigan, 89 Ky. 305 , 12 S. W. 550 [ 11 Ky. Law Rep. 509 ]. Such a procedure is authorized by a fair construction of the 'Code provisions relating to this subject. The prevalence of a contrary rule would leave a party remediless when the trial judge' refuses to sign any bill.””
