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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““As the judgment rendered against the defendant was for $100 only, exclusive of costs, it is apparent that there is, on the part of Kichmond, nothing in controversy beyond that amount. Consequently he is not entitled to an appeal or any proceeding in error in this court to review the alleged errors. As the plaintiff below' is satisfied with the judg ment, the amount in controversy as to the defendant below is fixed thereby.””
