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.

1. ““Any error the court may have committed in dismissing White County Motor Company is now harmless and does not constitute reversible error. The evidence, above, is not sufficient to show any negligence on the part of White County Motor Company. See 8 Am. Jur. 2d Automobiles § 650 and 60 C.J.S. Motor Vehicles § 165(5). Furthermore, since the jury has exonerated Ford Motor Company for an alleged manufacturing defect that appellant’s expert witness admits was latent and could not have been discovered without a complete disassembly of the right front wheel brake, appellant is now estopped to complain against White County Motor Company on a derivative liability upon the theory of an implied warranty. See Davis v. Perryman, 225 Ark. 963 , 286 S.W. 2d 944 (1956).””
