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 45 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"It was held in Princeton Coal, etc., Co. v. Gilchrist (1912), 51 Ind.App. 216, 220 , 99 N.E. 426 that: 'A motion for a change of venue, while not strictly affecting the merits of the action, necessarily recognizes the jurisdiction of the court over the persons who join in the motion, and invokes the aid of the court in that behalf. It was held that such a motion is an admission of jurisdiction and a full appearance."”
