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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The rule seems to be well established in this state that the purchaser of real estate is not bound to take notice of registered liens or deeds created or executed by any person other than those through whom he is compelled to deraign his title. Perkins v. Cissell , [ 1912 OK 399 ], 124 P. 7 ; Reigel v. Wood , [ 1924 OK 113 ], 229 P. 556 . In the latter case, it was said: "The grantee is not required to take notice of conveyances not within his chain of title or those conveyances through which the purchaser is not compelled to deraign his title." [ Reigel , ¶ 2 ].”
