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 27 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The State further contends that a conviction in a federal court is not a disqualification. Sec. 496.100, applicable to St. Louis County, provides: “None of the following persons shall be permitted to serve as jurors: * * * (5) Any person who has been convicted of a felony”. In State ex rel. Barrett v. Sartorious, 351 Mo. 1287 , 175 S.W.2d 787 , 149 A.L.R. 1067 [1943], we held that such broad language without any stated limitation disqualified from voting one who had been convicted of a felony in a federal court. Certainly the reasons given therein are applicable here. There is even greater reason for such a conviction being a disqualification of a juror than a voter because Sec. 494.010 provides that every juror shall be “sober and intelligent, of good reputation * * * and otherwise qualified.” Certainly a conviction for a felony in a federal court has some bearing on these matters.”
