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 18 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“resumed exclusive possession of the property for his own use ...”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“He may treat the lease as terminated and retake possession exclusively for his own purposes, or, he may retake possession for the account of the tenant, holding the latter responsible in general damages measured by the difference between the stipulated rent and any amount the lessor is able to recover in good faith from his re-letting. As a further alternative the lessor may do nothing at all and sue the lessee as each rent installment matures or for the full amount of the rental due when the term ultimately ends.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“Having elected to terminate the term by ejectment, the lessor is foreclosed from obtaining judgment for the rent for the balance of the term which accrued after ejectment, but became sooner payable under the acceleration clause. This would in effect be a double remedy, which is conflicting and antagonistic.”
