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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“1. That the order granting the nonsuit is affirmed; 2. That the judgment dated December 19, 1960, is amended by adding a paragraph dismissing the cause of action based on willful misconduct; 3. That, in the interests of justice, and acting under the discretion granted by rule 2(c) of the California Buies of Court * the notice of appeal dated January 19, 1961, is declared to be a premature notice of appeal from that portion of the judgment as amended; 4. That the portion of the amended judgment dismissing the willful misconduct cause of action is reversed; and 5. That because each side has won and lost one major point on these appeals, each side shall bear its own costs on appeal.”
