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 34 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“an employee acts in bad faith and contrary to the interests of the employer in tampering with a third party's contract with the employer we can divine no reason that the employee should be exempt from a tort claim for interference with contract.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“We agree that the dismissal order was unappealable at the time of adjudication, because it disposed of only one of the many claims pled. However, when this Court reviews a judgment upon appeal it may reverse, vacate or modify any intermediate order involving the merits of the action, or any portion thereof. Intermediate or interlocutory orders anterior to judgment may thus be reviewed on appeal from the judgment.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“In lieu of or in addition to the orders provided for in this paragraph, the court shall require the party failing to obey the order or the attorney advising the party or both to pay the reasonable expenses, including attorney fees, caused by the failure, unless the court finds that the failure was substantially justified or that other cireumstances make an award of expenses unjust.”
