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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“We see no escape from the proposition that section 5924 is a limitation on section 5923; so that in computing the maximum allowance under the latter section there must be deducted the amount of the proceeds of the sale of land for division, and the commission is computed on the balance with the addition of a maximum of $100 as compensation for services in connection with that transaction. See Bynum v. Brewer, 217 Ala. 52 , 114 So. 577 ; section 9327, Code.”
