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 42 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“A district court’s valuation of property is presumed correct, and the evidence presented must be viewed in the light most favorable to the district court’s finding of fact. It is the province of the district court to judge the credibility of witnesses and the evidence they introduce. When the district court’s valuation is within the range of evidence provided by the parties, the district court’s valuation will not be set aside, unless this Court has a definite and firm conviction a mistake has been made.”
