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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The affidavits filed by the respective parties must be presumed to have been considered and passed upon by the Court of Civil Appeals, and thereupon that court would have been fully authorized to find that the facts set up as an excuse for not filing the transcript in proper time had no existence. “We must presume that such was the finding, and in that event the affirmance on„ certificate was correct, for appellant could not defeat the right to that by suing out a writ of error after he had failed to prosecute his appeal. Perez v. Garza, 52 Tex. 571 ; Thompson v. Anderson, 82 Tex. 238 [ 18 S. W. 153 ].””
