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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“A person injured by the wrongful acts of another has a duty to mitigate or minimize the damages and must “ ‘protect himself if he can do so with reasonable exertion or at trifling expense, and can recover from the delinquent party only such damages as he could not, with reasonable effort, have avoided.’ ” Lochthowe v. C.F. Peterson Estate, 2005 ND 40, ¶ 21 , 692 N.W.2d 120 (quoting Schneidt v. Absey Motors, Inc., 248 N.W.2d 792, 797 (N.D.1976)). The duty to mitigate damages is sometimes referred to as the doctrine of avoidable consequences. See Forster v. West Da kota Veterinary Clinic, Inc., 2004 ND 207, ¶¶ 37-38 , 689 N.W.2d 366 .”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“For the breach of an obligation arising from contract, the measure of damages, except when otherwise expressly provided by the laws of this state, is the amount which will compensate the party aggrieved for all the detriment proximately caused thereby or which in' the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom. No damages can be recovered for a breach of contract if they are not clearly ascertainable in both their nature and origin.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“"One of the touchstones for an effective appeal on any proper issue is that the matter was appropriately raised in the trial court so it could intelligently rule on it. The purpose of an appeal is to review the actions of the trial court, not to grant the appellant an opportunity to develop and expound upon new strategies or theories."”
