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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The contention of the State that the obtaining and keeping of the money, under the facts and circumstances to be hereinafter stated, constitutes the crime of grand larceny instead of obtaining money under false pretenses, is sustained by the principles announced in the cases of Courtney v. State, 174 Miss. 147 , 164 So. 227 ; Foster v. State, 123 Miss. 721 , 86 So. 513 ; Dukes v. State, 181 Miss. 704 , 181 So. 518 ; and Alford v. State, 193 Miss. 153 , 8 So.2d 508 . That is to say, that where any personal property is fraudulently obtained under such circumstances from an owner who intends that the title thereto shall not pass, the offense is grand larceny, but where he intends that the ownership or legal title should pass the offense is that of obtaining money under false pretenses.” 207 Miss. 754 -55, 43 So.2d at 210 .”
