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.

  1. ““He was convicted of the old Code offense of sodomy, and his election for punishment under the new Penal Code only made it necessary for the trial judge to determine from the proof which of the applicable sections of the new Code to apply. Both Secs. 21.06 (homosexual conduct) and 21.07 (public lewdness) replaced 'the old sodomy statute. Since the proof showed that the act of deviate sexual intercourse look place in a public place, (our emphasis), the court did not err in assessing punishment as a Class A misdemeanor under the provisions of said Sec. 21.07.” [3]”
