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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ ‘Where, on a trial under an indictment for murder the evidence shows that the defendant shot the deceased in the back while the latter was in the act of running from him, there is shown to exist no necessity real or apparent, which justified the killing, and therefore the defendant in such a case can not set up self defense.’ See also Cobb v. State, 19 Ala.App. 345, 346, 348 , 97 So. 779 ; Mangino v. Todd et al., 19 Ala.App. 486, 491 , 98 So. 323 ; Moon v. State, 21 Ala.App. 111, 112 , 105 So. 427 ; Vaughan v.
