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.
“It would be absurd to allow a vendor to alter the nature of property rights, where property has been sold via an [agreement of sale], to the detriment of the vendee during the executory period. Likewise, we cannot allow a vendor to alter the nature of property rights sold pursuant to an [agreement of sale], for the benefit of the vendee, during the executory period. Either result would be unjust.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority“[b]ecause of this court's recent decision in [Hiner] (holding that a 'two-story in height' restriction was ambiguous and therefore unenforceable), the restriction over the Hashimotos' Lot 11, worded as a 'one-story in height' restriction, is likewise ambiguous, and therefore unenforceable.”
