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 38 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"This Court has recognized the validity of voice identification in criminal prosecutions. Allison v. State (1960), 240 Ind. 556 , 166 N.E.2d 171 ; Deal v. State (1895), 140 Ind. 354 , 39 N.E. 930 . See also 29 Am.Jur.2d, Evidence § 368 where it is stated: `Since an early period, witnesses' testimony of identification of a person by having heard his voice has been regarded as legitimate and competent to establish identity in both criminal and civil cases.'" ( 266 N.E.2d at 618 .)”
