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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“We agree with the plaintiff that §§ 17b-93 , 17b-94 and 17b-95 must be read together because they set out a general statutory scheme for reimbursement to the state for public assistance payments that the state has made to or for the benefit of public assistance beneficiaries. Section 17b-93 provides the general rule for reimbursement. Under that provision, subject to certain exceptions stated therein, if a public assistance beneficiary `has or acquires property of any kind or interest in any property, estate or claim of any kind, the state of Connecticut shall have a claim . . . against such beneficiary for the full amount paid. . . .' General Statutes § 17b-93 (a). Thus, the general rule is that the state has a claim, for the full amount of its payments, against a public assistance beneficiary who `has or acquires property of any kind.'”

Under that section. subject to certain limitations and exceptions, `upon the death of any person who has at any time been a beneficiary of [public assistance] . . . the state shall have a claim against such . . . person's estate for all amounts paid on behalf of . . . such person . . . for which the state has not been reimbursed. . . .' (Emphasis added.) General Statutes § 17b-95 . Thus, under this section, upon the death of a person who, at any time, was a public assistance beneficiary, the state may make a claim against that person's estate for the full amount of the public assistance payments made to or for the benefit of that person.”
