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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““But the motion (to strike out parts of a pleading) did not specify any particular portion which should be stricken out, but left the court to surmise or determine what portions the pleader meant as referring to the Chapman contract. For this reason, if for no other, there was no error in overruling the motion.' A motion to strike out should designate with particularity the averments which are deemed surplusage.””
