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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The right to the relief prayed for in said petition is based entirely upon the record, and it does not appear from an inspection of said petition that any reason existed for granting the same that was not considered by the court and which did not exist at the time when the previous order of the court denying the confirmation of the sheriff’s sale was made. We • think that the petition was wholly insufficient, under § 1393, Code Proc., which authorizes the court ‘in which a judgment has been rendered, or by which or the judge of which a final order has been made,. ... to vacate and modify such judgment or order.’ ””
