These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 30 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “". . . [W]hen part of a conversation or transaction is put in evidence, the opposite party may rightfully call for the whole of it, although the evidence was in the first place illegal. Gibson v. State , 91 Ala. 64 , 9 So. 171 . Further, it has been held that when the defendant, on cross-examination of a witness elicits part of a conversation, the State may in rebuttal show the entire conversation. Davis v. Stone , 131 Ala. 10 , 31 So. 569 ; Flournoy v. State , 34 Ala. App. 23 , 37 So.2d 218 ."”
