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 23 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The effect of the filing statute is not only to protect against subsequent purchasers and mortgagees in the county in which the mortgage is made and filed, but, as well, subsequent purchasers and mortgagees in counties to which the property has been moved. For a period of 120 days after the property has been moved into a new county, the mortgage filed is notice constructive of the lien itself. However, should the mortgagee fail to refile his mortgage or a certified copy thereof in the new county within that period, the mortgage ceased to exist so far as an incumbrancer or purchaser in good faith is concerned. Nor is it necessary that the mortgagee have knowledge of the. removal of the property to the new county. Snodgrass v. J. I. Case Threshing Machine Co., 70 Okla. 303 , 174 Pac. 515 ; First National Bank of Vinita v. Guess, 72 Okla. 125 , 179 Pac. 29 ; Arnold v. Wittie, 99 Okla. 236 , 227 Pac. 132 ; Continental Supply Co. v. Badgett, 114 Okla. 1 , 242 Pac. 209 ;. Jarecki Manufacturing Co. v. Fleming, 123 Okla. 147 , 252 Pac. 17 . “Mr. Morgan, in this cause, cannot be said to be an innocent purchaser or a purchaser in good faith. This court has previously so held in a closely analogous case arising where the second mortgage was taken before the life of the notice of the filed mortgage had terminated and no affidavit of nonpayment was filed to perpetuate the notice. First State Bank of Ardmore v. King & McCants, 37 Okla. 744 , 133 Pac. 30 .””
