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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"Here, Plaintiffs have alleged that Defendants' private placement of securities `purported to be exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the SEC.' ... Construing this allegation in Plaintiffs' favor, the Court finds that the securities in this case were `offered or sold pursuant to a Commission rule or regulation adopted under section 4(2).' Regardless of whether the private placement actually complied with the substantive requirements of Regulation D or Rule 506, the securities sold to Plaintiffs are federal `covered securities' because they were sold pursuant to those rules. As a result, Fla. Stat. § 517.07 does not require registration of such securities."”
