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 31 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““An execution, regular upon its face, emanating from a court of competent jurisdiction, will protect an officer who obeys it; but the rule is different when a purchaser claims under an execution sale. In such case it is well settled that a person seeking to recover property, and basing his claim upon an execution sale, must prove the judgment upon which the writ issued.””
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. Oliver v. Burg““It does not appear that the officer had made a levy under the execution while it was still in force. The sole question, therefore, is whether or not a sheriff may hold an execution until long after the return day, and until his term of office has expired, and then make a levy and sale. ””
