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

1. ““Section 141 of the tax law is not controlled or modi fied by any of the provisions of the civil code. . . . It was placed in the tax law, and not in the civil code, although another tax-deed limitation is placed in the civil code. Its provisions are limited by other provisions of the tax law, which would indicate that it was the intention of the legislature to place all modifications of its provisions in the tax law. . . '. It was certainly not the intention of the legislature that it should be modified or controlled by any of the provisions of the civil code, but was intended to be a complete limitation within itself, except so far as it is modified by other provisions of the tax law.” (Page 678.)”
