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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In our view, the legislature did not intend the amendment to operate retrospectively, and since the change of law affected substantive and not procedural rights, the trial court did not err in holding that the 1982 amendment could not be applied retrospectively to extinguish Mr. Lambright’s duty to pay alimony after the expiration of 121 months.” Lambright, 12 Kan. App. 2d at 212-13 .”
