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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The next day Keith filed an unverified motion to set aside the judgment, asserting that only a pre-trial conference had been scheduled for June 5 and that his attorney had been prevented by illness from being present. This motion was not presented to the court until after the lapse of the term. The court considered the motion at its next term and, acting only upon a statement of counsel, made a finding of unavoidable casualty and vacated the judgment.”
