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.
““It is claimed that no set-off is permissible in a replevin action. That is the general rule which sometimes is stated without qualification, as in the excerpt from Blue Valley Bank v. Bane, 20 Neb. 299 , 30 N. W. 64 , quoted in Schlessinger v. Cook, 9 Wyo. 256, 265 , 62 Pac. 152 . Where, however, the right of plaintiff to possession depends on the existence of an indebtedness, it is competent for the defendant to show that the debt was paid or otherwise extinguished at the time the action was commenced. Schlessinger v. Cook, supra.””
