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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“IsSince there is nothing in the record to suggest that defendant ever acquired the alley behind his lots by title or by acquisitive prescription, the nonuse by plaintiff of the alley would not operate as a loss of a servitude of passage in defendant’s favor.
