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

  1. “to prove [a] claim that the conveyance of [a] marital home to [a spouse] gave rise to a resulting trust, [the paying spouse] must overcome the presumption under Georgia law that the conveyance was a gift. To rebut the presumption, [the paying spouse is] required to prove by clear and convincing evidence, inter alia, that a resulting trust was contemplated by both parties by way of an understanding or agreement.”
