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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““[The wife’s] appeal ... comes too late. An order granting a motion for a new trial is an appealable order. § 512.020, RSMo 1986. The retrial of the case before an appeal is taken waives any error that could have been alleged at that time. It is too late to complain after the second trial produces a different result. Allowing a party to choose ‘the most profitable of the two [judgments is] a species of gambling not allowed in a court of justice.’ [The wife’s] failure to appeal prior to the retrial precludes her from assigning error to the order now.””
