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 25 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Appellee argues that the action of the trial judge in signing the minutes at the end of an invalid extended term should be considered as a correction of the minutes nunc pro tunc, and as an authority which he should be allowed to exercise in vacation. This contention is definitely refuted in the Watson case, supra, wherein it was said: ‘In view of the mandatory provision of this statute (Sec. 750, Code 1930), there is no right or authority in a presiding judge to sign the minutes of his court after the term has expired by operation of law and is in vacation.’ ( 166 Miss. 194 , 146 So. 126 .)”' 194 Miss. at 273 , 11 So.2d at 902 .”
