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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“A complete examination of the pleadings and record before us leads us to conclude that the trial court properly entered summary judgment. The plaintiffs herein are faced with the fact that the answer filed in the initial case was a sworn answer relating many of the facts they now state to be untrue, and we find that their action of swearing to the veracity of the statements now estops them from suing on the course of conduct pursued by their attorneys.”
