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.

  1. ““[I]t is clear to this court that any person who has been convicted of committing or attempting to commit a crime of violence is not a suitable person to be licensed to own a pistol or have one under his possession or control. The sheriff therefore had no authority to issue a pistol permit to the appellant and the license is void.””
