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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The premises should be so described that the record will furnish evidence of the limits to which title is established by the judgment, as well as to point out to the sheriff who serves the writ of possession the extent and location of the land recovered. ... In order that the controversy between the parties may be definitely settled, we think the boundary lines should be accurately located and the disputed tract described with precision.” Porter v. Counts, 6 Cal. App. 550, 557 , 92 Pac. 655 .”
