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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"However, transactions between spouses are `subject to the general rules which control the actions of persons occupying confidential relations to each other....' (Civ.Code, § 5103.) To support a finding of undue influence, `[t]he evidence, in addition to a showing of marriage relationship, must also show such unfairness of the transaction as will tend to establish that the wrongful spouse made use of the confidence reposed for the purpose of gaining an unreasonable advantage over the mate.' ( Snyder v. Snyder (1951) 102 Cal.App.2d 489, 492 [ 227 P.2d 847 ]) [.]" 40 Cal.3d at 863-864 , 221 Cal. Rptr. at 553 , 710 P.2d at 354.”
