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 25 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““One of the tests in determining whether a judgment or decree is final is: ‘If no further action of the court is required to dispose of the cause, it is final.’ Other tests are: Is the order or decree one which determines the rights of the parties so that no further questions can arise before the court rendering it, except such as are necessary to be determined in carrying it into effect, or is the judgment or decree ‘one which concludes the parties as regards the subject-matter in controversy in the tribunal pronouncing it?’ ””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“"A mere examination of the decree appealed from in the instant case shows that it is not a final decree and, hence, not a decree from which an appeal can be taken. It expressly declares that plaintiffs are entitled to an accounting from the defendants and orders them to produce at the time and place designated therein all of defendants' books, records and other named documents, so that an accounting may be rendered to plaintiffs, and requires defendants to account to plaintiffs for moneys received by them in which plaintiffs have a right to an accounting, and enjoins defendants from assigning, transferring or in any way disposing of certain specified articles of personal property in which plaintiffs are alleged to have an interest. There were, therefore, no grounds for this appeal. The decree was purely interlocutory and not in any sense final."”
