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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “[w]e review traditional equity cases de novo. The test on review is a clearly erroneous standard (ie., whether we can say that the trial court’s findings are clearly erroneous). Berry v.

Munzner v. Kushner, 2010 Ark. App. 196 , 375 S.W.3d 647 .”
