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 62 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[T]he loss of the bargain rule was not properly applied as there was no finding made of the market value of the land in question at the time of the breach. The trial court simply took the difference between “what the Adams had agreed to pay and what he later sold [the property] for[.]””
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. Jones v. Lee“While a subsequent sale is evidence of the market value at the time of breach, it is not conclusive and the court must properly establish the market value at such time. Thus, evidence of the resale price is properly admitted as one of the factors in determining market value.”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. Jones v. Lee““[I]n this country in the case of a private sale of land, the right of the vendor to resell on account of the [purchaser’s default] and recover any deficiency arising on the resale is generally denied.””
