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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"Under the new statute, [§ 59.07, supra] the losing party may secure a review of all questions of law involved in any adverse ruling arising during the course of the trial, even though not included in the motion for new trial, under the following conditions: Where the question arises as the result of charges given by the trial court of its own motion or at the request of the adversary, or as the result of the refusal of the trial court to give charges requested by the losing party in writing, the losing party may secure a review thereof without having objected thereto at the trial, or having excepted to the ruling; provided the giving or refusal to give the charge is properly assigned as error and embodied in the transcript of the record brought here on appeal.””
