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 24 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““An attorney must be accorded due process in disbarment and disciplinary proceedings, and the requirements of due process are met when the attorney is served with charges or specifications reasonably informing him of the charges against him and the attorney is thereafter accorded a hearing with an opportunity to defend. See 7 Am.Jur., supra, Sec. 64. “The above requirements of due process being met, formal and technical pleadings are not essential, nor do they have any place in a disbarment proceeding. In Re Fite, 228 Ala. 4 , 152 So. 246 ; McCord v. State, 220 Ala. 466 , 126 So. 873 ; Ex parte Thompson, 228 Ala. 113 , 152 So. 229 , 107 A.L.R. 671 ; Ex parte Grace, 244 Ala. 267 , 13 So.2d 178 .””
