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 49 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"The State's evidence was sufficient to prove appellant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Ala. Code § 13-1-70 (1975). Although the evidence was conflicting in certain instances, any differences of fact were resolved by the jury. It is not the function of this court to re-weigh the evidence. We are required to review the evidence presented in the light most favorable to the State, Bass v. State , 55 Ala. App. 88 , 313 So.2d 208 (1975), and not to substitute our judgment for that of the jury. Cumbo v. State , 368 So.2d 871 (Ala.Crim.App.). cert. denied , 368 So.2d 877 (Ala. 1979)."”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“"Appellant is correct that a falsus in uno charge requiring, instead of permitting, the jury to disbelieve a witness is error. See Lowe v. State , 88 Ala. 8 , 7 So. 97 (1889); Watson v. State , 19 Ala. App. 267 , 97 So. 118 (1923); Butler v. State , 16 Ala. App. 234 , 77 So. 72 (1917). The charge must be phrased in permissive ('may disregard') rather than mandatory ('must disregard') terms."”
