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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Negligent homicide is the killing of a human being by criminal negligence. “The violation of a statute or ordinance shall be considered only as presumptive evidence of such negligence. “Whoever commits the crime of negligent homicide shall be imprisoned, with or without hard labor, for not more than five years.””
