Most-quoted passages

These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Bowman moved for a new trial on the ground that the 'Big House' transaction was a bona fide debt as conclusively proven by the writing; that awarding $2,500.00 as attorney fees was error because Ely failed to prove damages in her slander of title action; and finally because the court abused its discretion by taking the case under advisement for 21 months.”
