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.
““When one adjoining lot owner builds on his own property, one wall flush with the line, but resting wholly on his own property, the adjoining owner acquires no interest nor easement in such wall. He cannot acquire such interest other than by grant, or by prescription raising a presumption of a grant. He cannot, as of right, use such wall as a common wall, or as lateral support for a building thereafter erected on his own lot. The owner of the wall may raze same at will. Bisquay v. Jeunelot, 10 Ala. 245 , 44 Am.Dec. 483 [ (1846) ]; Moody v. McClelland, 39 Ala. 45 , 84 Am.Dec. 770 [ (1863) ].””
