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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is well settled that a verdict should be directed against a party only when there is no evidence tending to establish an issue in his favor, when viewed in the most favorable light to him. Barrentine v. Henry Wrape Co., 120 Ark. 206 , 179 S. W. 328 . Or, stating it another way, ‘If there is any evidence tending to establish an issue in favor of a party, it is error to direct a verdict against him.’ Headnote 1, Scott v. Wisconsin & Ark. Lbr. Co., 148 Ark. 66 , 229 S. W. 720 .””
