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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Any person aggrieved by a judgment or decision of the board of supervisors, or municipal authorities of a city, town, or village, may appeal within ten (10) days from the date of adjournment at which session the board of supervisors or municipal authorities rendered such judgment or decision, and may embody the facts, judgment and decision in a bill of exceptions which shall be signed by the person acting as president of the board of supervisors or of the municipal authorities. The clerk thereof shall transmit the bill of exceptions to the circuit court at once, and the court shall either in term time or in vacation hear and determine the same on the case as presented by the bill of exceptions as an appellate court, and shall affirm or reverse the judgment.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“[P]rocedural uniformity impels a rule requiring a bill of exceptions prerequisite to vesting the circuit court with subject matter jurisdiction in all appeals from boards of supervisors, regardless of the issues presented. McIntosh argues that his appeal was not prosecuted under Miss. Code Ann. § 11-51-75 (1972), but under Miss. Code Ann. § 65-7-67 (1972), and therefore, the general statute does not apply. We find nothing in section 65-7-67 negating the necessity of a bill of exceptions as prescribed by section 11-51-75.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“The purpose of a bill of exceptions is to bring the proceedings before the tribunal to the court to enable that court to determine whether the tribunal acted properly with reference to what was before it.”
