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.
“Appellant’s theory ... is that he can sue an independent executrix without presenting any claim ... the claim asserted by appellant ... is not a claim that is required to be presented even to an administrator. The claims required to be presented to an administrator are those arising before the appointment and qualification of such representative. The statutes do not relate to claims arising out of contracts of the representative after qualification. Section 317(d), Probate Code.”
