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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““A consignment of goods for sale is a bailment and does not imply a sale, but imports an agency with title in the consignor. 12 C.J. 528; 15 C.J.S. Consignment. * * * ‘The vital, distinguishing feature of a conditional sale is that the purchaser undertakes an absolute obligation to pay for the goods; while a consignment is nothing more than a bailment for sale.’ In re Sachs, D.C.Md. 1927, 21 F.2d 984, 986 .””
