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 39 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““(a) No person who has been convicted in this state or elsewhere of committing or attempting to commit a crime of violence shall own a pistol or have one in his possession or under his control.””
5 later decisions quote this exact passage“Although, under strict interpretation, the term `larceny' might not be held to be a crime of violence, yet, after indulging all reasonable presumptions and intendments in favor of the constitutionality of the statute under the required rule, we cannot say that designating larceny as a crime of violence renders the classification `wholly devoid of any semblance of reason to support it, as to amount to mere caprice, depending on legislative fiat alone for support.'”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Dunn“Unquestionably the legislature had full authority to deal with the subject here involved. It is uniformly recognized that the constitutional guarantee of the right of a citizen to bear arms, in defense of himself and the state, Const. 1901, art. I, § 26, is subject to reasonable regulation by the state under its police power. Jackson v. State , 37 Ala. App. 335 , 68 So.2d 850 , cert. denied , 260 Ala. 698 , 68 So.2d 853 [1953].”
