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.

  1. “We note in the report that the judge ordered that the car be returned (from buyer to seller after the money damages had been paid, in effect rescinding the sale. An order of this sort is an attempt to provide equitable relief. See 27 Am. Jur. 2nd Equity Sec. 105. Since it is impermissible to afford equitable relief, the entire judgment becomes tainted. Accordingly, the matters must be returned to the trial court for the purpose of assessing damages only.”
