These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

2. “Section 1031.1 is an obvious substitute for the old “term time rule.” It is a rule of practical necessity. In Todd v. Orr (1914), 44 Okl. 459 , 145 P. 393 , we observed that the term time rule is of far-reaching importance. We said that a tri al court must have some power to correct its errors, and concluded “Any other view would so fetter and paralyze the power of the courts that they must frequently do wrong, from mere inability to do right.””
