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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“1. It is well established in Georgia that an unemancipated minor may not sue a parent for injury arising from a negligent act. Clabough v. Rachwal, 176 Ga. App. 212, 213 ( 335 SE2d 648 ) (1985); Coleman v. Coleman, 157 Ga. App. 533 ( 278 SE2d 114 ) (1981). Public policy reasons which support the parental or family immunity include: (1) disturbance of domestic tranquility, (2) danger of fraud and collusion, (3) depletion of the family exchequer, (4) the possibility of inheritance, by the parent, of the amount recovered in damages by the child, and (5) interference with parental care, discipline and control. Clabough, supra.”
