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 52 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. ““If any stockholder desires to sell his stock in such company, the remaining stockholders of such company shall have the first right to purchase the same in the proportions of their present holdings in such company, and the price to be paid for such seller’s stock shall be the value of the same as shown by the books of the company at the time of the proposed sale. Such retiring or selling stockholder shall give to the other stockholders notice in writing of his intention to sell his stock, and such remaining stockholders shall have ten (10) days from the receipt of such notice within which to purchase, then such selling stockholder is at liberty to sell such stock to' third persons. If any stockholder does not desire to avail himself of the privilege to purchase such stock as herein provided, then the other stockholders may exercise such privilege in the proportion of their present holdings.” (Bylaws, Sec. 4, Article 3.)”

2. ““Appellee Yingling has filed a verified motion to dismiss the appeal alleging therein that the act or acts sought to be enjoined have already been committed by the party against whom the injunction is sought prior to the time of perfecting this appeal from a judgment in this case denying injunctive relief. However, we find upon examination of the petition that appellee Yingling has sold and transferred only sixteen shares of the common capital stock and has remaining in his own name two hundred and seventy-four shares. The amended complaint seeks to restrain William H. Yingling from transferring any of his stock to an innocent purchaser. We hold the issues presented are not moot and therefore the motion to dismiss the appeal is overruled. We hold that the amended complaint is sufficient as against demurrer.””
