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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““A person who is the absolute perpetrator of a crime is a principal in the first degree, and. a person who is present, aiding and abetting the fact to be done, is a principal in the second degree.” Syllabus point 5, State v. Fortner, 182 W.Va. 345 , 387 S.E.2d 812 (1989).”
