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 38 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[except under special cireumstances, no fiduciary obligations exist between a buyer and seller of | any property”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“Thus in the absence of a finding of fraud, the seller is entitled to be credited, in the computation of damage sustained because of the breach of contract, the difference between the contract price and the price for which he can sell the forfeited property. The fact that, according to plaintiff’s evidence, this amount exceeds the amount paid on the contract forecloses further inquiry as to whether or not the forfeiture provision of the contract properly assessed the actual damages suffered by the defendants.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“(1) Loss of an advantageous bargain; (2) Any damage to or depreciation of the property; (3) Any decline in value due to change in market value of the property not allowed in items Nos. 1 and 2; (4) For the fair rental value during the period of occupancy.”
