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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ * * * There is no mandate in the statute requiring the court reporter to take stenographic notes of arguments of counsel. This court stated in Embrey v. State, 283 Ala. 110 , 214 So.2d 567 (1968) if counsel wishes to preserve for review any ruling of the trial court made during closing arguments, he must object and point out to the court that portion of the argument to which he objects. When that is done it is made a part of the record. Without this we have nothing to review.””
