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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““. . . It thus appears that the special judge was not available for the presentation of plaintiff-appellant’s motion for change of venue from the county within ten days after the special judge had qualified. It was never intended that a special judge could make ineffective the provision of Rule 1-12B by making himself unavailable to receive a motion for a change of venue from the county within ten days after he had qualified. “Further, the rule states that ‘a request for change of judge or county may be made’ within ten days after the special judge has qualified (Our italics). We do not construe this rule to mean that such request shall be filed only within this ten day period and not sooner. . . . The ten day period allowed by the proviso herein was for the purpose of pro tecting the rights of the party still entitled to a change of venue from the judge or county by giving him the same period of time within which to file his motion for a change as that allowed the other party. . . .””
