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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Because I do not consider this case to be before us on the merits I vote to deny the Petition for Re-hearing. The only question presented is: Did the Circuit Judge err in denying the motion of Petitioners for the entry of a ■summary final decree? It appears to me that if the matter were here upon the merits our pronouncements in the -case of Bowden v. [City of] Jacksonville, 52 Fla. 216 , 42 So. 394 , as suggested in the opinion prepared by Mr. Chief Justice Mathews, would be controlling.””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““Ordered, adjudged and decreed that it is undisputed from the record that the proposed project does not take any of the Plaintiffs’ land or premises, and it further appears undisputed from the exhibits on file that the eighteen (18) feet remains between Plaintiffs’ property and the proposed overpass and the present pavement on said eighteen (18) feet will remain undisturbed. “The Court is of the opinion that from the averments of the Bill of Complaint, the construction of the project will materially damage only the consequential rights of the Plaintiff to ingress, egress, light, air, and view, but under circumstances justifying the payment of appropriate compensation to plaintiff; thus the court is of the opinion that the bill has equity and the various motions for a summary judgment should be denied.””
1 later decision quote this exact passage““The history of this litigation and the pertinent facts are set forth in the dissenting opinion of Chief Justice Mathews in this cause. We are of the view that the sole question presented in the petition for certiorari is whether or not the lower court committed error when it denied the motion for summary final decree. Inasmuch as there appears to be a material issue of fact created by the complaint and the answer of the State Road Department, it would be improper to quash the order of the chancellor at this point in the litigation. Certiorari, which is directed solely to the denial of a motion for summary final decree, is denied.” ■”
