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 18 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Appellant’s petition was addressed to the sound discretion of the trial court and the case comes to us with the presumption that the correct result was reached. The burden is upon the appellant to overthrow that presumption. We do not weigh conflicting evidence, nor will we disturb the discretionary act of a lower court unless a clear case of abuse is shown. Quinn v. State (1936), 209 Ind. 316 , 198 N. E. 70 .””
