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 34 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “". . . The witness had not answered, hence, only a question was in the record. Ordinarily a mistrial is too drastic a penalty in such a posture. "A mistrial only springs into being upon `a manifest necessity * * * or when the ends of justice would otherwise be defeated.' Code 1940, T. 30, Section 100. Thomas v. Ware , 44 Ala. App. 157 , 204 So.2d 501 ; Harnage v. State , 290 Ala. 142 , 274 So.2d 352 ." See also Kendricks v. State , Ala.Cr.App., 378 So.2d 1203 , and authorities therein cited.”
