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 46 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Under the doctrine of invited error, a defendant cannot by his own voluntary conduct invite error and then seek to profit thereby.”
16 later decisions quote this exact passage“"[T]he pre-trial colloquy noted above, even taking it as the presentation of a motion in limine, did not, as the court below held and as respondent argues in brief, preserve any error for review. It is the law 'that an appellant who suffers an adverse ruling on a motion to exclude evidence (or other matters, e.g., argument of counsel), made in limine , preserves this adverse ruling for post-judgment and appellate review only if he objects to the introduction of the proffered evidence or other matters and assigns specific grounds therefor at the time of trial, unless he has obtained express acquiescence of the trial judge that such subsequent objection to evidence proffered at trial and assignment of grounds therefor are not necessary. See C. Gamble, The Motion in Limine: A Pre-Trial Procedure That Has Come of Age , 33 Ala.L.Rev. 1 (1981).' Liberty National Life Ins. Co. v. Beasley , 466 So.2d 935 , 936 (Ala. 1985)."”
5 later decisions quote this exact passage“To be reviewable, error must be preserved by properly invoking adverse rulings by the trial court.”
