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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"The law says that damages for breach of a contract is that sum which would place the injured party in the same condition he would have occupied if the contract had not been breached. If you find that the Goolesbys are entitled to recover for breach of contract, then you would determine from the evidence what amount of money they could reasonably have been expected to make from the flock of chickens that was removed, or in other words, the value of the contract, and they would be entitled to a recovery in that amount."”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“To determine whether the evidence creates a genuine issue of material fact, `[the appellate court] must review the record in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party and must resolve all reasonable doubts against the movant.' Ex parte Steadman, 812 So.2d 290, 293 (Ala.2001) (citing Pryor v. Brown & Root USA, Inc., 674 So.2d 45, 47 (Ala.1995)).”
