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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““But, even if it be conceded that, ordinarily, it is sufficient to aver generally want of probable cause without more, the situation disclosed by the declaration may well demand greater particularity. Where facts are alleged which, prima facie, show reasonable grounds for the institution of the proceeding complained of, the inference of probable cause arising therefrom should be rebutted. 13 Ency. Pl. & Pr. 441; 38 C. J. 464. This qualification of the less exacting rule is consonant with reason, fairness and the principles of sound pleading.””
