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.
“'Although the defendant has a right to have questions answered truthfully on voir dire examination of the venire, the failure of a juror to make a proper response to a question regarding his qualifications to serve as a juror does not automatically entitle the defendant to a new trial. The proper inquiry is whether the defendant's rights were prejudiced by the juror's failure to properly and correctly respond.' " Limbaugh v. State , 581 So.2d 5 , 8 (Ala.Crim.App. 1991). Furthermore, the Supreme Court of Alabama has determined that whether a party is prejudiced by the failure of a juror to answer on voir dire is 'a matter primarily within the discretion of the trial court. In the absence of a showing of an abuse of discretion, the ruling of the trial court thereon will not be reversed.' Land Associates, Inc. v. Simmons , 562 So.2d 140 , 148 (Ala. 1989), cert. denied, General American Life Ins. Co. v. Simmons , 499 U.S. 918 , 111 S.Ct. 1305 , 113 L.Ed.2d 240 (1991).”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““ ‘It is a well-established rule in this state that the latitude and extent of cross-examination are matters which of necessity rest largely within the sound discretion of the trial court, and rulings with respect thereto will not be revised on appeal except in extreme cases of abuse. State v. Howington, 268 Ala. 574 , 109 So.2d 676 (1959); Housing Authority of City of Decatur v. Decatur Land Co. [ 258 Ala. 607 , 64 So.2d 594 (1953)]; Holland v. State, 424 So.2d 1387 (Ala.Cr.App.1982), cert. denied, 424 So.2d 1387 (Ala.1983).’ ””
