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 177 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(1) that the evidence has come to light since the time of trial or so late in the trial that it was impossible to present the evidence before the trial closed; (2) that it was not because of a lack of due diligence that the information did not come sooner; (3) the new evidence is not cumulative or impeaching; and (4) the evidence is so material that it would probably produce a different result in a new trial.”
6 later decisions quote this exact passage““The trial court loses plenary jurisdiction 30 days after judgment in the absence of a timely filed motion for new trial, so any action taken after the expiration of 30 days from judgment would be a nullity. TEX.R.CIV.P. Rule 329b.” (emphasis added)”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“(1) the evidence has come to the mov-ant’s knowledge since the trial; (2) it was not owing to the want of due diligence that it did not come sooner; (3) it is not cumulative; and (4) it is so material it would probably produce a different result if a new trial were granted.”
