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.
“Because it is nearly always impossible to predict the amount of future bonuses, if we were to adopt appellant’s position and hold that bonuses (already paid) should be disregarded when calculating child support when the amount of bonuses in future years cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty, we would not be giving effect to the language of FL § 12 — 201 (c)(3)(iv) [which states that actual income includes “bonuses.”] ... Appellant stresses the fact that he might not receive any bonus in 2003. This is, of course, possible---- If his bonus is significantly less than $41,400 for 2003, he can petition the court for a child support modification.”
