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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Under our law, an employee claiming workmen’s compensation benefits has the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that he suffered a disabling accidental injury arising out of and in the course of his employment. The testimony of the compensation claimant alone may be sufficient to sustain this burden of proof when there are corroborating circumstances and in the absence of testimony seriously discrediting the account of the accident furnished by the claimant.” (Emphasis added and citations omitted.)”
