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

1. ““Our Supreme Court has stated that the statute in question would hardly be taken as intending that a single obligation would be performable in two distinct counties for venue purposes. Rorschach v. Pitts, 151 Tex. 215 , 248 S.W.2d 120 , at page 123. This Court has heretofore held that the phrase ‘a particular county’ means a county that is fixed and certain, made so by the terms of the contract, and not subject to be changed at the will of the obligee. Bryson v. Oliver Farm Equipment Sales Co., Tex.Civ.App., 61 S.W.2d 147 .””

2. ““A written contract which leaves to either party, the obligor or the obligee, the privilege of selecting the place of performance in one of two or more counties is not, in our opinion, a contract performable in a ‘particular county, expressly naming such county, or a definite place therein, by such writing’ as required by sub. 5.””
