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 47 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Any money judgment rendered in the Supreme Court, court of appeals, district court or small claims court shall be docketed by the clerk of the court, in a judgment docket book and, shall be a lien on the real estate of the judgment debtor from the date of the filing of a transcript of the docket of the judgment in the judgment record book in the office of the county clerk of the county in which the real estate is situate. Upon approval and filing of a supersedeas bond upon appeal of the cause as provided by law, the lien shall be void.” (Emphasis added)”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“It is the rule in this state that we should look to the Spanish-Mexican law for definitions and interpretations affecting our community property statutes.... "While the Spanish-Mexican law did not provide for damages for all classes of common law torts, it did provide for the judicial segregation of the community property so that the moiety of one spouse could be applied to damages or forfeited for his or her `delito', a term applicable to both a criminal offense and a civil wrong.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage““Any person holding a judgment lien on any real estate situated in this state may subject said real estate to the payment of his judgment by a foreclosure suit in any court of competent jurisdiction, such suit to be instituted and prosecuted in the same manner as ordinary suits for the foreclosure of mortgages, and the sale thereunder to be held in the same manner and subject to the same rights of redemption as in sales held under mortgage foreclosure decrees.” (Emphasis added)”
