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

  1. ““While the failure to properly empanel the jury as required by law may be raised by motion for new trial, Fowler v. State, 261 Ala. 262 , 74 So.2d 512 [ (1954) ], unless there is such challenge made and ruling invoked in the trial court, then the minute entry in this respect will be deemed to be correct. Gardner v. State, 48 Ala. 263 [ (1872) ]; Vaughn v. State, 236 Ala. 442 , 183 So. 428 [ (1938) ].””
