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 48 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Usually the contentions of the parties are apparent from the evidence presented at trial. When the contentions are not so apparent or counsel’s contentions differ from the evidence he produced at trial, this Court does not require the trial judge to be clairvoyant. For this reason, we have consistently held that any misstatements of counsel’s contentions must be brought to the trial judge’s attention before the jury retires for deliberation so that he has an opportunity for correction.””
