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 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"To be admissible, an affidavit offered in support of a summary-judgment motion must `show affirmatively that the affiant is competent to testify to the matters stated therein.' Rule 56(e), Ala. R. Civ. P. Dr. [James R.] Stilwell's affidavit does not demonstrate that he satisfies the requirements for qualifying as a `similarly situated health care provider' under § 6-5-548 (b), Ala. Code 1975. Thus, the trial court did not exceed its discretion in excluding his expert testimony. Because Dr. Stilwell's affidavit is not admissible, the Sherrers have failed to rebut Dr. Embry's prima facie showing that he met the applicable standard of care in his treatment of Stephanie Sherrer. Thus, the trial court did not err in entering a summary judgment in favor of Dr. Embry."”
