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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Counsel for plaintiffs in error cite State ex rel. West, Attorney General, v. State Capital Co., 24 Okla. 252 , 103 Pac. 1021 , ap sustaining their contention. We do not believe that ease 'is in point. It was not contended in that case, nor could it be with any show of reason, that the offense sought to be enjoined constitutes a public nuisance. The offense there, publishing whisky advertisements, was an ordinary misdemeanor, and the court very properly held:. ‘To determine that the advertising or soliciting the sale or purchase of intoxicating liquors to be made without the state was a nuisance, within the purview of the foregoing statutes, would be tantamount to holding that every crime was a nuisance, and'unless such act constitutes a nuisance in the light of the case of In re Allison ( 48 Tex. Cr. R. 634 , 90 S. W. 492 * * *), cited and relied upon by counsel for the state, injunction would not be a proper remedy.’ ””
1 later decision quote this exact passage““Section 2463, Oomp. Laws 1909 (Rev. Laws 1910, sec. 2515), provides that: ‘A public nuisance is a crime against the order and economy of the state, and consists in unlawfully doing any act or omitting to perform any duty required by the public good, which act or omission either (1) annoys or injures the comfort, repose,' health or safety of any considerable number of persons; or (2) offends-publie-éeeeney; or * * * (4) in any way renders life or the use of property uncomfortable.’ “By section 2465, Comp. Laws 1909 (Rev. Law 1910, see. 2517), the maintenance of a public nuisance is hiade a misdemeanor and punishable as such. -Section 4758, Comp, Laws 1909 (Rev. Laws 1910, sec. 4252), provides that: ‘The remedies against a public nuisance are: (1) Indictment; or (2).a-civil action; or (3) abatement.’””
1 later decision quote this exact passage““Having decided that a turf exchange is a public nuisance, there is little more to be said. The statute (sec. 5771, Comp. Laws 1909; Rev. Laws 1910, sec. 4771), provides that an injunction may be granted to enjoin and suppress the keeping and maintaining of a common nuisance, and we can think of no good reason, and none has been suggested •by counsel, why this remedy is not available, notwithstanding the criminal laws of the state, to which the keepers of such place are also answerable, have not first been resorted to.””
