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.
“It is well established that recent sales of similar real estates are admissible as evidence in condemnation cases, either as substantive proof of value of property taken or in support of an expert’s opinion as to value. [Citations omitted.] If such evidence is offered on the latter basis, . . . the foundation requirements to show similarity are less strict than when the evidence is used as direct and independent proof of value. . . . [Emphasis added.]”
