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.

1. “That on August 15, 1996, the defendants published another article on the Plaintiff, and this second article did not correct any of the previous factual errors, but instead, repeated many of them to the public again, including calling the Plaintiff by a name which is not her own legal name, repeatedly refering [sic] to the Plaintiff by male pronouns, and still failing to inform the public that not only is the Plaintiff's suit against prison officials still pending, but no court has ever dismissed said suit as `frivolous.' Thus nearly everything that was wrong with the previous article was also wrong with the later article, and the defendants have engaged in a continuing course of conduct.”

2. “Except for civil actions that arise out of the operation of a motor vehicle and civil actions in which the state is the plaintiff, no officer or employee shall be liable in any civil action that arises under the law of this state for damage or injury caused in the performance of his duties, unless the officer's or employee's actions were manifestly outside the scope of his employment or official responsibilities, or unless the officer or employee acted with malicious purpose, in bad faith, or in a wanton or reckless manner.”
