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 19 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“But the acquiescence rule in Code § 85-1602 cannot be used to establish title. [Cits.] Furthermore, acquiescence will not 'establish a divisional line, in disregard of definite boundaries fixed by deeds, and thus operate to create title to lands not embraced, by a fair construction, within the description in the deeds.’ Smith v. Lanier, 202 Ga. 165, 170 [ 42 SE2d 495 ].” Gauker v. Eubanks, 230 Ga. 893, 899 (3) ( 199 SE2d 771 ) (1973). Accordingly, a charge on acquiescence was inapplicable here. 2.”
