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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““If the efforts of the Millers (i. e. their expenditures) were of eventual value to the trustee (and through him the general creditors were benefited) the Millers should have an offset for the reasonable value of their purchased services in the marketplace or for what the services were worth to the trustee whichever is less, and not to exceed the amount paid.” Id. at 857 .”
