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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “"... in the absence of an express agreement or controlling valid governmental regulations, the owners of mineral interests under a portion of land subject to an oil and gas lease are entitled to all of the rents and royalties accruing from the production of oil or gas from that land even though the lease may cover other tracts."”

  2. “all royalties accruing ... shall be treated as an entirety, and shall be divided among ... such separate owners in the proportion that the acreage owned by each separate owner bears to the entire leased acreage.”
