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

    2 later decisions quote this exact passage
  2. “If upon the trial it is determined that all or part of the tax was levied or assessed for an illegal or unauthorized purpose,... judgment shall be rendered therefor, with interest, and the judgment shall be collected as in other cases.
