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 108 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The structure of that Act reflects a comprehensive statutory scheme for reform of the legal system’s historically inadequate response to domestic violence. The Domestic Violence Act, in effect, is an omnibus source for rules regarding such cases. *** Most importantly for this case, it details the responsibilities of law enforcement officers. [Citation.] As we noted in Calloway, ‘[t]hese provisions reveal the General Assembly’s intent to encourage active intervention on the part of law enforcement officials in cases of intrafamily abuse.’ [Citation.]” Moore, 219 Ill. 2d at 488-89 , 848 N.E.2d at 1026 .”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““Where a general statutory provision and a more specific statutory provision relate to the same subject, we will presume that the legislature intended the more specific provision to govern. [Citation.] Similarly, we will presume that the legislature intended the more recent statutory provision to control. [Citation.]” Moore, 219 Ill. 2d at 480 , 848 N.E.2d at 1021 .”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“[l]egislative intent remains the paramount consideration: 'Traditional rules of statutory construction are merely aids in determining legislative intent, and these rules must yield to such intent.' [Citation.] In this regard, we may properly consider the purpose of the statutes, the problems that they target, and the goals that they seek to achieve. [Citation.]”
