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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“To establish grounds for visitation, a third party must demonstrate the existence of a custodial and parental relationship and that visitation would be in the children’s best interest. Under this regime, the first issue is standing and the second is the standard by which the question of visitation is adjudged after the cognizable right is established. Before a court may proceed to the substance of a visitation .request, the party seeking visitation must satisfy the threshold requisite of a custodial and parental .relationship.”
