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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The instant case consequently is not governed by, nor in turn affects, the law regarding the role of privity in recovery for personal injuries or property damage. Within the category of recovery for economic loss, this case is not an appropriate vehicle for deciding whether a plaintiff must demonstrate privity of contract as a prerequisite to recovery in tort on the grounds of breach of express or implied warranty, negligence, or strict liability.”
