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

The requirements of this paragraph concerning delivery of an assigned title shall be satisfied if (i) the seller mails to the purchaser by restricted mail the assigned certificate of title within 30 days...."”
