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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The first motion was properly denied by the trial court because the time of the motion was not appropriate. Such a motion ordinarily cannot be made until movant’s adversary has presented his case or rested. From the point of view of the orderly administration of justice and by the wording of Rule 50(a) of the Rules of Civil Procedure, we believe this to be the rule applicable to the first motion in the instant case. See 64 C.J., § 425 (Time for Motion), p. 431; Horridge v. Nichols, 1922, 194 Iowa 295 , 189 N.W. 763 ; Williamson v. Holloway, 1918, 69 Okl. 254 , 172 P. 44 . Appellant has cited no cases in support of his position that this first motion was timely made.””
