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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(a) After payment of costs and expenses of administration, the claims against the estate of a decedent must be paid in the following order: .... Sixth class. Judgments of any court of competent jurisdiction within the State, docketed and in force, to the extent to which they are a lien on the property of the decedent at the decedent's death.... Eighth class. A claim for equitable distribution. Ninth class. All other claims.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“Where payment is due from a decedent to a former spouse to account for the former spouse's portion of the marital estate, that payment must be made first. Only after the marital estate is separated from decedent's estate can the administrator determine decedent's assets and proceed to pay the creditors and distribute the assets of the estate pursuant to Chapter 28A.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“where one party dies before he pays the distributive award[,] Chapter 28A must be utilized to administer the estate and the distribution award becomes a claim against [the] decedent's estate.”
