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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““A juror was impaneled on the jury that tried this cause who was disqualified for jury service by reason of having been convicted of a disqualifying crime. At the time the jury were impaneled this fact was not known to appellant or her counsel, but before the cause was submitted to the jury the fact became known to them, and they raised no objection to proceeding with the jury as impaneled, but took the chances of a verdict in her favor, and for the first time raised the question on motion for new trial. We think the objection came too late.””
