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 23 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The traditional rule is that courts may take judicial notice of facts which are within the common knowledge of the community. The modern trend seems to have enlarged this conception to state that a fact may be noticed if it is verifiably certain by reference to competent, authoritative sources. This court has accepted the broadened scope of judicial notice. State ex rel. Humis-ton v. Meyers, 61 Wn.2d 772 , 380 P.2d 735 (1963).”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“In view of the three large mortgage balances payable over a long period of time, again the trier of the facts [in valuing the apartments] could take such factors [as future demand for apartment type housing and the fact these apartments were constructed of wood] into consideration in exercising the wide discretion allowed him.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“Thus, in making a division of the property the law does not impel an equal or exact division of the community property of the parties. The disposition only need be just and equitable, and wide latitude and discretionary powers are vested in the trial court in order to accomplish this division.”
