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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““* * * ‘Legal justification’ and ‘authority,’ as involved in Harvey, Woodward, and Gallo, and ‘consent’ as involved in this appeal, are all matters of exoneration or defense. Under these principles, defendant’s position that the complaint charging him with arson is void for failure to allege want of consent is untenable.” ( 22 Ill.App.3d 206 , 210, 317 N.E.2d 273, 275 .)”
