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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Mary P. Jones and her cod-efendant, T. B. Jones, were duly served with summons in the suit brought by the Wisconsin Planing Mill Company to- foreclose its lieu. They were bound to take notice of the cross-petition of Hiram Holt, filed thereafter, in which he asked for and obtained a decree for the foreclosure of his mortgage and an order of sale of the property in controversy. In Kimball and Others v. Connor, Starks and Others, 3 Kan. 414, 431 , it was said: ‘When the original summons is served the defendants are in court for every purpose connected with the action, and the defendants served are bound to take notice of every step taken therein.’ In Curry v. Janicke, 48 Kan. 168 , 29 Pac. 319 , it was held that when a party has been properly served with summons he must take notice of an answer and cross-petition filed by a defendant who was made a party to the action after the answer-day named in the summons.””
