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.
“Our standard of review is whether the trial court's decree is supported by the evidence. Unless there is not sufficient evidence to support the trial court's decree or unless the trial court's decree is otherwise plainly and palpably erroneous or contrary to the great weight of the evidence, the trial court's decree must be affirmed. Baptist Foundation of Alabama v. Penn , 295 Ala. 122 , 324 So.2d 766 (1975).”
