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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. ““ * * * Neither were the provisions of section 196.06, Florida Statutes 1941,. F.S.A. applicable, for the suit by the plaintiff against the defendant was not, in legal effect, a suit against a person in adverse possession as against one claiming the right of possession by virtue of the issuance of a tax deed creating a hew and independent title, but was a suit by a tax deed claimant against a person lawfully in possession of his own property which he had derived by deed and agreement fixing the boundary line of such property- — property which, in legal effect, was not covered by the description in the tax deed.””

2. ““In suit involving boundary line between contiguous tracts, substantial evidence sustained findings that when conveyances of tracts were made by grantors to defendant, parties agreed that fence line should constitute true line between parties and that after defendant executed a deed in 1931, he remained in actual possession of the strip of land lying between fence line and true line and that the line agreed upon by the parties became established as the true line by acquiescence and recognition.””
