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 43 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Appellant did not request an instruction under this statute, but he contented himself with requesting an instructed verdict on the whole case. If appellant had desired an instruction under the statute it was his duty to have macle such a request and as he failed to do so it is now too late to complain on the appeal of his case. Stinkard v. State, 193 Ark. 765 , 103 S.W. 2d 50 .”
