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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Where the property detained has a usable value in excess of the legal rate of interest, that is the ordinary measure of damages for the wrongful detention of personal property (34 Cyc. 1562), and this rule has been applied even where the amount allowed for its use for a short time has greatly exceeded the value of the property itself (Yandle v. Kingsbury, 17 Kan. 195).” (Cornwell v. Moss, 95 Kan. 229, 231 , 147 Pac. 824 .)”
