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 23 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The court shall give great weight to the findings made and inferences drawn by an agency on questions of fact. The court may affirm the decision of the agency or remand the case for further proceedings. The court may reverse or modify the decision if substantial rights of the appellant have been prejudiced because the administrative findings, inferences, conclusions, or decisions are: 1. In violation of constitutional or statutory provisions; 2. In excess of the statutory authority of the agency; 3. Made upon unlawful procedure; 4. Affected by other error of law; 5. Clearly erroneous in light of the entire evidence in the record; or 6. Arbitrary or capricious or characterized by abuse of discretion or clearly unwarranted exercise of discretion. A court shall enter its own findings of fact and conclusions of law or may affirm the findings and conclusions entered by the agency as part of its judgment. The circuit court may award costs in the amount and manner specified in chapter 15-17.”

2 later decisions quote this exact passage“`[t]he Supreme Court [reviews] the administrative agency's decision . . . unaided by any presumption that the circuit court's decision was correct.'”
