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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“OCGA § 17-8-25 mandates that to obtain a continuance because of an absent witness, the movant must show that (1) the witness is absent, (2) the witness has been subpoenaed, (3) the witness does not reside more than 100 miles from the place of trial, (4) the witness’ testimony is material, (5) the witness is not absent by permission of the movant, (6) the movant expects he will be able to procure the witness’ testimony by the next term of the court, and (7) the motion for continuance is not being made for the purpose of delay. The movant must also state the facts expected to be proved by the absent witness. 1”
