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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In order to constitute reversible error, the reviewing court must be satisfied that there are reasonable grounds for supposing that the jury might have been misled to the prejudice of the appellant. State v. Washington, 80 S. C. 376, 61 S. E. 896 ; Boggero v. Southern Ry. Co., 64 S. C. 104, 41 S. E. 819 ; Sharpton v. Augusta & Aiken Ry., 72 S. C. 162, 51 S. E. 553 . In this case no prejudice has been demonstrated.””
