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

  1. “A purchaser or encumbrancer from the grantor’s grantee is not required to inquire of the grantor in possession whether such grantor reserved any interest in the land conveyed. The grantor’s deed is held to be conclusive. In effect, by conveying such a deed, the grantor raises a presumption that he has made no reservation, that his continued possession is merely permissive and not antagonistic to his grant and that such continued possession is not a notice of other rights.”
