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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Seven-year period runs from time right accrued — Extent of possession. — (a) No person or anyone claiming under such person shall have any action, either at low or in equity, for the recovery of any lands, tenements or hereditaments, but within seven (7) years after the right of action accrued. (b) No possession of lands, tenements or hereditaments shall be deemed to extend beyond the actual possession of an adverse holder until the muniment of title, if any, under which such adverse holder claims such lands, tenements or hereditaments is duly recorded in the county in which the lands are located.”
