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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The court may change the place of trial in the following cases: “1. Where the county designated for that purpose in the complaint is not the proper county. “2. Where there is reason to believe that an impartial trial cannot be had therein. “3. When the convenience of witnesses and the ends of justice would be promoted by the change. “4. When the parties or their attorneys shall stipulate in writing to change the place of trial.””
