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.
“This court cannot concur with the position taken by defendant Tokio. The notice of cancellation contains a legend stating “Applicable item marked X”. The implication of that language is that items not marked with an “X” are not applicable to the insured and should be ignored. Thus, the insured is informed it does not have the right to seek any relief found in those paragraphs not marked with an “X”. The failure to mark the paragraphs with an “X” has the same effect as if defendant Tokio had never printed those paragraphs.”
