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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. ““Under which of these statutes was this order issued? Undoubtedly the temporary injunction mentioned in section 4425 is a writ of higher character than the restraining order mentioned in section 4427, for a writ issued under the former -would be of no force, validity, or effect, except on the execution of a bond by the parties securing the same, while no such rule seems to be specifically required by the statute in the latter case. The former embodies a restraint which continues, unless modified by the court, until the hearing of the cause, and then it is made either permanent or discharged altogether: while the latter, strictly speaking, is not an injunction at all, but a writ of the court to compel parties to maintain the matters in controversy in statu quo until the question of whether or not a temporary injunction ought to issue may be determined. No bond is by the statute required on the issuance of a temporary restraining order, although many authorities hold that it is a better practice to require it.” See, also, Offutt v. Wagoner et al., 30 Okla. 458 , 120 Pac. 1018 .”
