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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The objection was on the ground that there was no evidence of conspiracy, and that, therefore, the confession was admissible only against the party who made it. Regarded as a confession simply, there might be force in this objection; but the judge, in his reasons for overruling it, states that Harris was present when •the statement of Johnson was made, and made •no denial thereof. This brings the case within the rule of tacit admissions. It does not clearly appear that Harris was under arrest or in custody under the criminal charge at the time, mor was any objection on that ground urged. The case is not, therefore, within the rule of Diskin’s Case, 34 La. Ann. 919 [ 44 Am. Rep. 448 ].””
