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.
“[The statute] imposes criminal penalties on persons who willfully fail to pay child support. To establish a violation of [the statute], the government must show a willful failure to pay a past-due child support obligation.... Willfulness “requires proof of an intentional violation of a known legal duty....” For [the defendant] to have willfully failed to pay his child support obligation, he must have had the ability to pay.”
