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

  1. “However, violation of ‘the rule’ does not automatically warrant the exclusion of the witness who violates the rale. To the contrary, it is only when certain ‘special circumstances’ exist that a trial court should exclude the testimony of a witness who violates the witness exclusion rule. As a general rale, these ‘special circumstances’ exist only where there is proof that the witness violated the rale with ‘the consent, connivance or procurement of the party or counsel calling him.’”
