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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"An expert witness is one who by reason of education or special experience has knowledge respecting a subject matter about which persons having no particular training are incapable of forming an accurate opinion or making a correct deduction. Balfour v. State, (1981) Ind., 427 N.E.2d 1091 . A trial court's ruling that a witness is qualified to testify as an expert is reviewable only for abuse of discretion. Epps v. State, (1977) 267 Ind. 177 , 369 N.E.2d 404 ."”
