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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The statement to the effect that a resulting trust ‘never arises by virtue of an agreement’ which appears in cases such as Woodard v. Cohron, 345 Mo. 967 , 137 S.W.2d 497, 498 (Mo.1940); Mays v. Jackson, 346 Mo. 1224 , 145 S.W.2d 392, 399 (1940); Fulton v. Fulton, 528 S.W.2d 146, 158 (Mo.App.1975), pertains to an agreement to create a trust; not to an agreement that certain acts be done which in turn give rise to the creation of a trust by operation of law. Collins v. Link, 562 S.W.2d 131, 135 (Mo.App.1978).”
