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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. ““An appeal is perfected in the Court of Criminal Appeals by filing a petition in error with a duly certified casemade attached to it, or by filing a petition in error with a duly certified transcript of the record attached, within the time provided by statute.” “Where accused files in the Court of Criminal Appeals a petition in error, and neither casemade nor transcript of the proceedings is attached, there is nothing before the Court for adjudication.””
