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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. ““In such case if the mortgaged premises consist of separate and distinct farms or tracts, only such tract, or tracts, shall be sold as are sufficient to satisfy the installment or installments then due, with interest and costs of sale, but if said premises do not consist of such separate and distinct farms or tracts, the whole shall be sold, and in either case the proceeds of such sale shall, after satisfying the interest, portion or installment of the principal due, with interest and costs of sale, be applied toward the payment of the residue of the sum secured by said mortgage, and not due and payable at the time of such sale, and, if such residue does not bear interest, such application shall be made with a rebate of the legal interest for the time during which such residue shall not be due and payable, and the surplus, if any, shall be paid to the mortgagor, his legal representatives or assigns.” G. S. 1866, c. 81, § 4.”
