Most-quoted passages

These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 61 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"`Although the payment of the registration fee is a prerequisite to the ethical practice of law in this state, the payment itself has nothing to do with the legal ability of the attorney. Just as the payment of the fee does not guarantee that an attorney will practice law in a competent manner, the nonpayment of the fee does not necessarily imply that the nonpaying attorney will perform in an incompetent manner.'" (Emphasis added.) Brigham, 151 Ill.2d at 66 , 175 Ill.Dec. 720 , 600 N.E.2d 1178 , quoting Johnson, 225 Kan. at 465 , 590 P.2d at 1087 .”
