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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““An out-of-time appeal has been suggested by some Federal judges as a means of having State courts keep cases for redecision. However, in the fauna of our jurisprudence ‘there ain’t such an animal.’ See Ex parte Hammonds, 45 Ala.App. 468 , 231 So.2d 922 . In the absence of legislation, we see no occasion for artificial insemination to procreate a juridical bastard.””
