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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The State’s contention that appellee’s cross-action is, in effect, a suit against the State to the bringing of which the State has not consented and, therefore, cannot be maintained is overruled. “The State, not appellee, brought this suit. Appellee’s right to defend such suit included the right to cross-claim and obtain affirmative judgment on such claim where the claim so asserted is incident to, connected with, arises out of, or is germane to the suit or controversy brought by the State. Anderson, Clayton & Co. v. State, 122 Tex. 530 , 62 S.W.2d 107 ; Commonwealth of Massachusetts v. Davis, Tex.Civ.App., Austin, 160 S.W.2d 543 , reversed in part 140 Tex. 398 , 168 S.W.2d 216 .””
