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 73 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The generally held essentials for a new trial based on newly discovered evidence are the following: (1) the evidence must have been discovered since the trial; (2) it must be material to the factual issues of tlie trial, and not merely cumulative nor impeaching in character or credit of the witness; (3) it must be of such a nature that it would probably produce a different verdict in event of a retrial.””
1 later decision quote this exact passage“intended to paralyze the action of a judge who has heard the case, or a question in it, by the interposition of a motion to disqualify him between a hearing and a determination of the matter heard.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“[t]he certificate must be signed by an attorney who is a member of the bar of the Court. . . . The statute is not satisfied by having another lawyer . . . execute the certificate.”
