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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"It is not the province of this court to reweigh the evidence. Walker v. State, 416 So.2d 1083 (Ala.Crim.App. 1982). As a rule this court will uphold the trial judge's decision judgment based on a jury verdict unless that decision was palpably contrary to the weight of the evidence and manifestly wrong. Raines v. State, 428 So.2d 206 (Ala.Crim.App. 1983); Watkins v. State, 565 So.2d 1227 (Ala.Crim.App. 1990)."”
