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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The court found as a fact that prior to the purchase of the stock by Newman he had access to the books of the brokerage company, and frequently examined them, and made inquiry as to the business of the company, and was in a position to know and did know the condition of the affairs of the brokerage company at the time of the purchase of the stock. This finding is not excepted to, and is conclusive, and there is sufficient evidence in the record to support it.””
