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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The Workers Compensation Act provides benefits only [when an] injury by accident aris[es] out of and in the course of the employment. An accident is an unlooked for and untoward event which is not expected or designed by the person who suffers the injury. An accident therefore involves the interruption of the routine of work and the introduction thereby of unusual conditions likely to result in unexpected consequences.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“Because plaintiff did not need to show that the overexertion which was the cause of his injury occurred while he was engaged in some unusual activity, the commission's findings are sufficient to support its conclusion.”
