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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“This stipulation is not... a damage provision for breach of contract, and the sellers did not bring this action for damages. They were seeking payment of the unpaid purchase price. The purchase price is clearly set out in the contract, that is $610,000 plus a golf course or $610,000 plus $115,000. From a reading of the contract the intent of the parties is clear. They agreed to a purchase price of $1600 per acre. In reliance on and in consideration of the completion of a golf course [within 2 years] the purchase price to be paid in cash was $1350 per acre.”
