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 38 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Although Article 2226 and § 38.001 do not provide for attorney’s fees for the pure defense of a claim, “there is an exception to the general rule of law for cases in which the matters encompassed by the claim and counterclaim are indistinguishable, where they arose from the same transactions, where the same facts required to prosecute the claim are required to defend against the counterclaim”; under these circumstances, attorney’s fees are appropriate.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“In this case, the claim and counterclaim are very closely related. Though based on different provisions, the claim and counterclaim alleged breaches of the same contract. Basically, the same facts on which the appellants based their affirmative defenses to Rose’s suit formed the basis of their counterclaim .... The two actions are so interrelated that no distinction between the prosecution of Rose’s claim and the defense of the counterclaim is necessary. (Emphasis added.)”
