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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Plaintiff assails the action of the trial court in denying the motion for a new trial, but we are of the opinion that such order should not be disturbed on appeal, because the weight of authority seems to be that where, as in this ease, such motion is based on affidavits in support thereof, opposed by counter-affidavits fully denying all the material allegations contained therein, the order denying the motion for a new trial will be affirmed on appeal. (Diller v. Northern Cal. Power Co., 162 Cal. 531 [ 123 P. 359 , Ann.Cas. 1913D 908]; Patterson v. Keeney, 165 Cal. 465 [ 132 P. 1043 , Ann.Cas. 1914D 232].) ””
