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 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““A personal judgment was not appropriate at that time except as to costs. The proper decree would be to allow complainant thirty days in which to pay the sum ascertained, and in default of its payment the property should be sold. If the sale does not produce a sufficient amount, an execution may be ordered on motion to collect the balance, if there is a personal liability then due. (Citations Omitted.)” [ 263 Ala. 273, 275 , 82 So.2d 252, 254 ].”
