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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““We are of the opinion that the court erred in denying plaintiff’s motion for a new trial. The evidence, considered as a whole, fell short of showing clearly and convincingly that McKenna ever intended to abandon Ids homestead. None of the facts point to such an intention with any degree of certainty and, unless additional evidence that such was McKenna’s intention is produced, it cannot be held that his homestead became subject to the lien of defendant’s judgment.” (Italics supplied.)”
