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 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is provided by statute, G.S. 9-14, that the judge ‘shall decide all questions as to the competency of jurors,’ and his rulings thereon are final and ‘not subject to review on appeal unless accompanied by some imputed error of law,’ S. v. DeGraffenreid, 224 N.C. 517 , 13 S.E. 2d 523 ; S. v. Hill, 225 N.C. 74 , 33 S.E. 2d 470 ; S. v. Davenport, 227 N.C. 475 , 42 S.E. 2d 686 . This exception presents no reviewable question of law and will not be sustained.””
