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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““I know of no law that will sustain the court’s action. The defendant had the legal right to take depositions to be used conditionally at the trial against him. Secs. 4147, 4149, R.S. 1889. If, however, the state should thereafter abandon the prosecution and dismiss the case, then the defendant was entitled, not only to a judgment of discharge, but as well a judgment for his costs lawfully incurred in preparing for his defense.””
