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 18 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[I]nstead of moving to modify or dissolve the [order], and instead of seeking to have a hearing on same, relator appears to have fully acquiesced in the action of the court until [the time at which he violated the order]. If the restraining order was too broad and included matters of doubtful validity, it was clearly the duty of relator to obey same and to seek a modification or dissolution.”
