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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In determining whether the three-year statute of limitations applies, our inquiry is whether the statute created the cause of action. An action is not based upon a liability created by statute if the right would exist at common law without the statute. A statute is merely remedial if it does not give any new rights.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““Under the facts shown here, plaintiff s claim is based on ordinary negligence. The KTCA does not ‘create’ a cause of action like the highway defect statute, K.S.A. 60-301 (Weeks) (since repealed), the Kansas Consumer Protection Act, or the veterans’ preference law. Instead, the KTCA removes the immunity granted governmental entities at common law. By eliminating a defense, the KTCA merely created a remedial, not a substantive change. Tort actions against the State are brought pursuant to the KTCA. Such are not brought in violation of the KTCA.” Gehring, 20 Kan. App. 2d at 251 .”
