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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Every other action must be brought in the county 'in which the defendant or some one of the defendants resides or may be summoned."”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““Before a summons can be rightly issued from one county to another, the person served with the summons in the county in which the action is brought must have a real and substantial interest in the subject of the action adverse to the plaintiff, and against whom some substantial result may be obtained; and the action must be rightfully brought in the county in which it is brought, and as against the person served with the summons in such county.””
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. Krumme v. Walker““* * * When there are two or more defendants liable on the same cause of action, and the suit is brought in the proper county against one of the defendants, the other defendants may be brought in by summons, although they reside or are served in different counties. But it never was intended that a plaintiff could arbitrarily join a party as a defendant who is in no way interested or liable upon the cause of action set up In the petition. * * *””
