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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““As to the contention of appellant that the question involves a constitutional right which cannot be reached by said section 4½, it is sufficient to quote the following: ‘The manner and method of summoning a jury is a subject matter of legislative control rather than of constitutional provision, the benefit of which may be waived. ’ (People v. Nakis, 184 Cal. 105 [ 193 Pac. 92 ].) But even if it were a constitutional right that was invaded and it appeared from an examination of the record that there was no ‘miscarriage of justice,’ the error would be disregarded on appeal.””
