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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““When one of two or more partners dies the partnership is terminated, and the partnership assets become a partnership estate to be administered and liquidated according to the statutory procedure. . . . The entire partner ship estate is to be applied to the payment of the partnership debts. (G. S. 1935, 22-403.) And it is only after those debts are satisfied and the partnership affairs are settled up that the net remainder — the excess — is to be apportioned between the surviving partner and the executor or administrator of the deceased partner’s estate, (citations.)” ( p. 170.)”
