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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“It is well established that where a motion for continuance is not in writing, signed and sworn to by the movant, it is not error to overrule such motion. [Citations omitted.] It has sometimes been said that the foregoing rule is legal in nature and other such motions may be made under the court’s “equitable powers,” but in such instance the trial court’s action is reviewable only for abuse of discretion. See Darty v. State, 149 Tex.Crim. 256 , 193 S.W.2d 195 (1946). In applying the so-called “equitable powers” approach, we do not see any abuse of discretion in the trial court overruling the oral continuance motion.”
