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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The effect of the court’s order of dismissal upon the first ground, i.e., the bar of the 3-year statute is a discharge on the merits and a bar to further prosecution on an unappealable ground under the authorities. State v. Brooks, Mo., 372 S.W.2d 83 , 85 — 86[2]; State v. Ulmer, 351 S.W.2d[7] l.c. 10[1]. In this posture, even if the state’s appeals were found meritorious on the sufficiency of the indictments to accuse, the bar to prosecution found by the court to exist by virtue of the statute of limitations renders that matter immaterial. Thayer v. Sommer, Mo., 356 S.W.2d 72, 76 [1].”
