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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(s)ection 41.001(c) of the Texas Property Code has the effect of giving homestead protection to the proceeds of a voluntary sale of a homestead for a period of six months after the date of the sale. Realizing that there might be instances in which a family would need to sell the family homestead, the Texas Legislature acted to preserve the homestead protection afforded by the Texas Constitution in such cases by exempting sale proceeds from creditors’ claims for six months.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“(t)he Legislature evidently realized that conditions might and probably would arise when it would be to the interests of the family that the homestead should be sold, and if the proceeds of such a sale was (sic) in no way protected, then the beneficent provisions of our Constitution would be of no avail and the protection afforded the family would be lost.”
