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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““We are not persuaded to appellant’s point of view. In Goode v. State, 245 Miss. 391 , 146 So.2d 74 (1962), on the precise point the Court acknowledged that a jury [c]ould weigh the testimony of a prosecutrix with great caution, but nevertheless held that there was no good reason why such facts to be emphasized by an instruction since this would go to the weight of the evidence and be argumentative. We adhere to the reasoning of Goode, and thus hold that the instruction sought was properly refused.””
