The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

3 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. Deats v. State · State v. Montoya““It is obvious when a requisite motion is made, the venue must be changed or in the alternative, the court may require evidence in its support. It is equally clear that if a hearing is had thereon it is the duty of the court to determine the question by its findings. And it is well established that findings thus made will not be disturbed upon review unless it shall appear from the evidence that the trial court acted unfairly and committed palpable abuse of discretion. * * * ””
