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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(a) Confidentiality of records. Except as otherwise provided ... all treatment records shall remain confidential and are privileged to the subject individual. Such records may be released only to the persons designated in this chapter or ... to other designated persons with the informed written consent of the subject individual as provided in this section.[ [4] ]”
