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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “[F]raud upon the court is “that species of fraud which does or attempts to subvert the integrity of the court itself.” * * * Such fraud has been construed to include only the most egregious conduct, such as bribery of a judge or a member of the jury, evidence fabrication, and improper attempts to influence the court by counsel. * * * Generally, fraud between the parties, without more, does not rise to the level of fraud upon the court. (Citations omitted.)”
