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.
““The application to the Court for an order for the sale of assets is a step in the winding up of the affairs of a bank and if such an order be granted, although made by a Court of record of competent jurisdiction, still the funds realized by the sale are not subject to disbursements by the Court, but by the Comptroller, whose agent is in the receiver of the bank. The proceeding in Court for the approval of a sale is ex parte. “The Statute does not contemplate notice to those interested and there are none of the essentials of a controversy, the proceedings lacking judicial characteristics.””
