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 27 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The legal right to the rents, as well as the possession, continues in the mortgagor until foreclosure and sale, as it does in a vendor until conveyance; but, when default lias been made in the conditions of the mortgage, the mortgagee at once becomes entitled to a foreclosure of the mortgage and a sale of the mortgaged premises. This process recluiros time, and on general principles of equity the court may make the decree, when obtained, relate back to the time of the commencement of the action, and, where necessary for the security of the mortgage debt, may appoint a receiver of the rents and profits accruing in the meantime, thus anticipating the decree and sale.””
