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

  1. “"We do not infer that the defendant was thereby associated with rough treatment or with forcing the girl to have intercourse. We construe Judge Bouldin's use in Lowery v. Jones , 219 Ala. 201 , 121 So. 704 , 706 , 64 A.L.R. 553 , of `responsibility for the injury' to mean identifying the person whom the patient claimed to be responsible for causing the injury. See Alabama Power Co. v. Edwards , 219 Ala. 162 , 121 So. 543 ; discussion in Taylor v. Atlantic Coast Line R. Co. , 232 Ala. 378 , at page 381, 168 So. 181 , at page 183; and McElroy, Law of Evid. in Ala., § 110."”
