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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““* * * The defendant filed his motion within the statutory period after the return of the verdict, and before the rendition of judgment. Hence it .follows, notwithstanding the court did not before sentence and judg ment ovei\tvule the motion for new trial, yet the court must be presumed to have full knowledge of its records and to know that the motion for new trial had been filed and was then pending. The only logical conclusion that can be reached is that the sentence and judgment rendered against the defendant during the pendency of the motion for new trial was in effect an overruling of such motion. This being the effect of the sentence and judgment pending the motion for new trial, and then subsequently formally overruling such motion, we are of the opinion that the defendant has a right to a full hearing upon the errors assigned in his motion for new trial. Manifestly there was no necessity for the defendant, when the court propounded the question to him as to whether he had anything to say why he should not be sentenced, to state that his motion for new trial alleged the grounds and reasons why he should not be sentenced, for presumptively the court must be held to have had knowledge of the fact that the motion for new trial had been filed and was pending, as well as the grounds alleged in it. We repeat that the rendering of the judgment against the defendant while the motion for new trial was pending was in effect a denial of such motion.””
