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.
““Plaintiff’s second point, that Atlantic had nothing to garnish because the $10,000 judgment against National Indemnity was rendered for plaintiff’s benefit and not in favor of Donald, may quickly be disposed of. This contention is simply not supported by the record. Nowhere in the scanty record on appeal, aside from plaintiff’s bare assertions in her brief, is there any suggestion that Donald’s action against National Indemnity was brought for the benefit of plaintiff. Plaintiff was not a party of record, on appeal or at trial. See National Indemnity Company v. Donald, [Fla.App.], 229 So.2d 900, 901 . Had Donald desired to assign the cause of action to plaintiff, he could have easily done so, and she would have then appeared as the real party in interest.””
