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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“First, that the subject-matter of the controversy, to wit, the validity of the assignment, can only be heard and determined in the court having control of the assignment proceedings; the contention being that the provisions of the statute requiring the assignee to file bond and inventory in the district court, of the county, and giving that court full authority over the assignee, in effect confers upon that court exclusive jurisdiction over all questions affecting the assignment. The statute of Iowa does not create the right to make an assignment for the benefit of creditors. It simply recognizes, and in some particulars restricts, this right, and provides the method by which the trust created by the deed shall be carried into effect.”
