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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““By virtue of section 6887, Code, a judgment creditor is protected against a prior deed executed by the judgment debtor, and unrecorded, unless at the time of the rendition of the judgment he had notice of the deed. His subsequent purchase is effective in so far as this question is concerned as of the date of the judgment, not of the sale. If he had no notice when the judgment was rendered, notice on or before the sale does not deprive him of the protection of the statute.” (Citations omitted.)”
