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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Appellant’s final ground of error is that he was tried in jail clothes. There is nothing in the record to indicate that this allegation is true. The only thing in the record that could possibly support this contention is that, when Officer Ginn was called upon to identify appellant as the burglar, he identified appellant as the burglar, he identified him as ‘the man over here in the white suit.’ Such testimony is not sufficient to show this Court that appellant was actually dressed in jail clothes.””
