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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. ““It is admitted that the lands involved are 'agricultural lands’, within the meaning of section 9-303, supra; [section 6-303, I.C.] and that the first lease expired November 1, 1940; and the extension or renewal thereof for one year terminated November 1, 1941. It is also admitted that the respondents served written notice on appellants to quit December 13, 1941. This was clearly within the 60-day period succeeding the termination (November 1st) of the 1941 lease. The allegation thatj appellants 'continued to remain in possession of the premises under the terms of said lease and did considerable work in the way of cultivating and sowing crops on said land in the fall of 1941 * * * with the knowledge and consent of plaintiffs;’ is not sufficient to allege a lease, either oral or in writing, especially in the face of written statutory notice to quit, and consequently fails to state grounds constituting an affirmative defense.””
