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.

1. ““We conclude, therefore, that the provisions of art. 30(c) controlled at the time of the trial of this cause and that under its terms the State was precluded from prosecuting appellant for or convicting him of any offense alleged against him in the petition for adjudication in the juvenile court. Accordingly, prosecution as an adult was in violation of the former jeopardy explicit in art. 30(c). Appellant’s initial ground of error is sustained.””
