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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“agreement between the injured plaintiff and an insured could not be enforced against insurance agents . . . . Consequently, the settlement agreement is not probative on the issues of [the agent's] fault or [the defendant's] damages. [The plaintiff], as the assignee, will have to prove his negligence action against [the agent] in full.”
