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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is unnecessary for the accusation to charge the intent in a contempt proceeding. The affidavit is sufficient if the facts therein stated constitute a contempt. If they do, then the intent becomes immaterial. It is the acts done by the contemner and the acts alone that are looked to in a determination of the offense. In the case of Dodge v. State, 140 Ind. 284 , 39 N. E. 745 , the court said: “ ‘In determining whether or not a contempt has been committed, it does not depend upon the intention of the offending party, but upon the act he has done.’ “ ‘Disclaimer of intentional disrespect or design to embarrass the due administration of justice is no excuse, especially where the facts constituting the contempt are admitted, or where a contempt is clearly apparent from the circumstances surrounding the commission of the act.’ 13 C. J. 45.””
