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 19 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The courts will not encourage continuous litigation. If the appellant’s complaint had been held sufficient upon demurrer, and a trial afforded him, before a jury, in the Marion superior court, resulting in an adverse verdict and judgment, he would have been in a position to maintain another action based upon what he may have considered false testimony, which contributed to his loss. There would be no end to the litigation.””
2 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. Parks v. State · Meier v. Pearlman““The rule in this state and in most of the courts in this country does not sustain appellant. To permit the maintenance of such action would sanction a collateral attack upon judgments in other causes.” (Emphasis added)”
