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.
““An examination of the records in these cases reflect that Act No. 335, Third Special Session, approved February 10, 1972, now known as the “Youthful Offender Act”, was never called to the attention of the trial court. No motion of any kind was made by Armstrong and Fowler to the trial court prior to entry of judgment. Nor was there motions for a new trial within the time allowed by law, or even thereafter.””
