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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Civ.R. 15(D) specifically requires that the summons must be served personally upon the defendant. In this case, service was performed by way of certified mail which is clearly not in accordance with the requirement of Civ.R. 15(D). Civ.R. 15(D) also requires that the summons must contain the words ‘name unknown.’ Appellants also failed to meet this specific requirement of the rule. (Emphasis sic.) Id. at 58 , 537 N.E.2d at 209 ,.””
