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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"The appellate process is predicated upon the aggrieved party's establishing an error on the part of the trial judge. It is patently unfair to charge such an error without having given the judge the opportunity to avoid it. It is incumbent upon a party who believes he [or she] should prevail on the evidence, as a matter of law, to advise the trial court of this belief prior to the submission of the factual issues for resolution. Failure to do so should deprive that party of his [or her] right to test the sufficiency of the evidence upon appeal. Just as is the motion for a directed verdict, this is, in effect a demurrer to the evidence. The motion where there is no jury might take the form of a motion for judgment as a matter of law."”
