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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“A veteran is liable to the VA through either indemnification or subrogation for any compensation paid by the VA to the mortgagee due to default and foreclosure on the veteran’s VA guaranteed mortgage. 38 U.S.C. § 3732 ; 38 C.F.R. § 36.4323 ; see also Stone v. Derwinski, 2 Vet.App. 56 (1992). A veteran remains liable for the loan guarantee indebtedness even though he may have transferred the property to a new owner who has assumed liability for and subsequently defaulted on payment of the mortgage. 38 U.S.C. § 3732 ; 38 C.F.R. § 36.4323 ; see also Travelstead, [supra]); Smith, [supra]; Branham v. Derwinski, 1 Vet.App. 93 (1990). In the instance of a mortgage assumption, the veteran remains liable to the VA unless he secures a release of liability. 38 U.S.C. § 3732 ; 38 C.F.R. § 36.4323 .”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. East v. Brown“the due process inquiry does not turn on whether a property owner knew that a foreclosure proceeding was taking place, but rather turns on whether the mortgagee has used his best efforts in good faith to put the owner on notice that a foreclosure is to take place.... The constitutionality of a foreclosure procedure depends not on the subjective understanding of the property owner, but on the objective propriety of the procedures used.”
