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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““(6) In 1 Am.Jur. Abandonment, § 8, it is pointed out that the elements of abandonment are: (1) an intention to abandon; and (2) an external act whereby such intention is carried into effect. The intention to abandon is the paramount inquiry. “And in § 9, it is stated further: ‘ * * * Abandonment consists of two elements — act and intention. The act of relinquishment of possession or enjoyment must be accompanied by an intent to part permanently with the right to the thing; otherwise there is no abandonment. * * * ’ ””
3 later decisions quote this exact passage““ * * * The first special charge requested was that the court instruct the jury to return a verdict for defendant. Such special request was of the same effect as a motion for directed verdict, and presented the same question for the trial court’s consideration as a demurrer to the evidence. J. R. Watkins Co. v. Palmer, 193 Old. 684, 146 P.2d 843 . * * * »”
