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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The plaintiffs made an effort to pay the taxes on the land in question during all years since they acquired the same, and up until they discovered the tax foreclosure sale in 1969 had honestly and sincerely believed that they had been paying the taxes on the land in question ever since they acquired it. Because of the facts set forth above the plaintiff’s failure to pay taxes was due to mistakes.”
