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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Here we have a case involving an order declaring a mistrial, not the granting of a new trial. Mistrial and new trial are not the same. But it has been held that the similarity between them is sufficient to bring mistrial within the rule laid down by the Supreme Court in the Johnson case, Johnson v. Court of Civil Appeals, 162 Tex. 613 , 350 S.W.2d 330 .””
