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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“If the trial court is of the opinion that the verdict is so ... inadequate that a new trial should be granted for that reason only, it may indicate to the party or his attorney within what time he may enter a[n] ... additur. This ... additur is to be entered only with the consent of the ... defendant ... as an alternative to a new trial, and is to be entered only if the issue of quantum is clearly and fairly separable from other issues in the case.”
