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 46 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"The title to the beds of all lakes and ponds, and of rivers navigable in fact as well, up to the line of ordinary high-water mark, within the boundaries of the state, became vested in [the state] at the instant of its admission into the Union, in trust to hold the same so as to preserve to the people forever the enjoyment of the waters of such lakes, ponds, and rivers, to the same extent that the public are entitled to enjoy tidal waters at the common law."”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“We highlight another implication of the County's identification of the lake's ordinary high water mark. The County's new determination would effectively redraw Jennie Webber Lake's contours, extending the lakebed hundreds of feet inland. As noted above, that land appears to be privately owned. If given effect, the new determination might deprive landowners of property on which they pay taxes.”
