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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Appellant's objection to the definition of `actual cash value' here under consideration nowhere intimates in what said definition is deficient, nor suggests to the court the elements of what appellant considered a proper definition. Appellant's objection that such definition was incorrect, misleading, and confusing was too general to require consideration and the court did not err in overruling the same.”
