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.
““The identification of an item at trial need not be entirely unqualified, as the weight to be given to identity is for the jury ... [citations omitted] ... Testimony concerning an exhibit that it ‘looks like’, ‘looks familiar’, ‘very much like’, ‘very similar’, etc., to an involved object, has been held sufficient to warrant its admission into evidence.” State v. Ridinger, 589 S.W.2d 110, 113 (Mo.App.1979).”
