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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Petitioner’s chief claim is that the trial court has lost jurisdiction and is now powerless to bring the defendant into court at any succeeding term and sentence him on the verdict returned at the January term, 1932. In State v. Watson, 95 Mo. 411, 414, 415 , 8 S. W. 383 , and in State v. Schierhoff, 103 Mo. 47, 50 , 15 S. W. 151 , we have definitely ruled otherwise, on the theory that there is no final disposition of a cause until there is a final judgment, and a court does not lose jurisdiction of a case until final judgment is entered, though such be not done until a subsequent term. This is generally recognized in criminal cases.””
