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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““* * * The board of county commissioners do not draw the jury. They simply select a larger list of names from which the jury is subsequently drawn. In most of the states, jury lists are selected by such officers as judges of election, township officers, county officers, and special boards. Thompson & M. Jur. § 45. And it is generally held that the statutes regulating the selection of these lists are merely directory. Id. §§ 47, 139.””
