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 40 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is well settled that in determining the legislative intent it will be presumed that the General Assembly is aware of previous construction of particular statutory language by this Court and if in a subsequent reenactment of the statute, the General Assembly uses the same language already construed by this Court, it intends that the same language in the reenacting legislation have the meaning we have given it. Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Comm’n v. Silkor Development Corp., 246 Md. 516, 524 , 229 A. 2d 135, 140 (1967); St. Joseph Hospital v. Quinn, 241 Md. 371, 379 , 216 A. 2d 732, 736 (1966).” Id. at 49.”
