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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“* * * If the shares sold are not furnished by the seller at the time of the sale but are supplied by the broker, the transaction is a short sale and sets in motion the short sale process. The fact that a transaction is a short sale must appear prior to the time when the broker must make delivery in accordance with the rules of the exchange. A transaction, which at that time, or earlier, is made as a short sale, forever remains a short sale, regardless of the manner in which it is closed, that is, regardless of whether it is closed by a covering purchase or by the delivery of shares which the seller has owned for some time.”
