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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“We recently had occasion to discuss the law with respect to the establishment of an oral trust in real estate, affirming the requisites that the declaration must be made prior to or contemporaneous with a transfer of realty, must be proven by evidence that is clear, cogent and convincing, and that ordinarily, the testimony of a single, interested witness would not be sufficient to establish a trust by that quantum of proof. Tansil v. Tansil, 673 S.W.2d 131 (Tenn. 1984); citing e.g., Sanderson v. Milligan, 585 S.W.2d 573 (Tenn. 1979) and Hunt v. Hunt, 169 Tenn. 1 , 80 S.W.2d 666 (1935).”
