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.
“As the Harbour [v. Northwest Land Co., 284 Ark. 286 , 681 S.W.2d 384 (1984)] opinion makes clear, it is proper to consider whether a general plan of development exists when determining whether a written covenant or restriction contained in the chain of title of the party seeking to avoid the restriction remains valid. We have no case in which a restriction has been created as the result of a general development scheme.”
