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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“There if (sic) no proof as to who placed the words “No Acct.” on the check. It does not appear when they were placed there or for what purpose. The appearance of those words on the check cannot substitute for any neces sary proof. . . . For all that appears in the testimony here defendant may have had funds in that bank, and he may have known he had funds there. Nothing appears to the contrary. . . . . we cannot presume defendant had no funds in the Leoti bank or that there was such a bank.”
