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.
“We find no reversible error. Admittedly, the court admonished the jury to consider only evidence in the record each time that counsel for appellant objected. This apparently satisfied counsel, since he did not complain that the court’s admonition was insufficient, nor did he move for a mistrial. It was only after an adverse judgment had been rendered that the assertion was made that the court’s admonition was insufficient.”
