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 107 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““A depositor .is one who delivers to or leaves with a bank money, or checks or drafts, the commercial equivalent of money, subject to his order, ánd by virtue of which action the title to the money passes to the bank.””
5 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““The statute does not in express terms provide that the action authorized must be brought in the district court of the county where the bank had its domicile, but we believe this to be the proper construction, in view of the effect which must be given to other articles of the statute relative to liquidation proceedings. It is likewise clear that the purpose of the various articles touching the control and disposition of the insolvent estate is to place it in custodia legis, and therefore in effect to designate the court administering the estate as the one in Which contested actions must be brought.’.’”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority““If, with his check against an actual deposit, made in good faith, he had purchased a cashier’s cheek such as was involved in the Middlekauff Case [ 242 S. W. 442 , 111 Tex. 561 ], or a draft, which proved worthless, then the original deposit, not the cheek or draft, would have been protected.””
