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 23 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Because the trial court is in a superior position to assess the probative value and competency of opinion evidence, it enjoys considerable discretion in admitting such evidence. State v. McGraw, 571 S.W.3d 802 , 804 (Mo.App.1978). There is no indication that the court abused its discretion in admitting the owner’s testimony; once admitted, such evidence could have formed the basis for the jury’s finding that the value of the item stolen exceeded $150. § 570.030, RSMo 1978.”
