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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. ““Alabama courts have repeatedly held that a mistrial is a drastic remedy; it is to be used sparingly and only to prevent manifest injustice. The decision whether to grant a mistrial rests within the sound discretion of the trial court and the court’s ruling will not be overturned absent a manifest abuse of that discretion. E.g., Banks v. State, 919 So.2d 1223 (Ala.Crim.App.2005); Bryant v. State, 727 So.2d 870, 877 (Ala.Crim.App.1998).””
