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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Alabama has a long-established rule that where there is a conflict in the record between the court reporter’s transcript and a written judgment entry, the judgment entry controls. Keeton v. State, 280 Ala. 140 , 190 So.2d 694 (1966); Tuberville v. State, 348 So.2d 868 (Ala. Cr.App.), cert. denied, 348 So.2d 870 (Ala. 1977). This is especially true when the sentence according to the court reporter’s transcript might be unlawful, while the judgment entry reflects a valid sentence. Williams v. State, 27 Ala.App. 542 , 176 So. 471 , cert. denied, 234 Ala. 622 , 176 So. 472 (1937).””
