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 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“An abuse of discretion occurs when the ruling is clearly against the logic and effect of the facts and circumstances of the ease. We cannot say the trial court abused its discretion by its ruling unless we can characterize it as clearly untenable or not justified by reason. When there exist reasons both supporting and detracting from a trial court decision, there is no abuse of discretion.”
