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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[The writer] feels that in this case [mortgagee’s] proof failed to show in him sufficient equity to justify relief. It is probably a case where the facts actually warranted the result, the deficiency being possibly a somewhat technical one of proof. The point is that [mortgagee] did not show that the premises actually sold in the foreclosure were not of sufficient value to repay him the mortgage debt with costs. If perchance that was the case, [mortgagee] certainly is not entitled to the relief granted.”
