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.

1. “"Functions of writ of error coram nobis are limited to an error of fact for which statute provides no other remedy, which fact does not appear of record or is unknown to court when judgment is pronounced, and which, if known, would have prevented the judgment and also which is unknown and could not have been known to the party by exercise of reasonable diligence in time to have been otherwise presented to court, or which the party is prevented from presenting by duress, fear or other sufficient cause. 20 O.S. 1951 §§ 40, 41; 22 O.S. 1951 § 9. "Writ of error coram nobis will reach only matters not cognizable on motion for new trial, or in arrest of judgment, or on appeal."”
