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

  1. “[t]he judge before whom the allegedly contemptuous conduct occurred is not a 'party' to appellate review of a contempt finding, as is reflected in the style of a contempt case before this Court, i.e., 'In re' and the name of the alleged contemnor. Accordingly, no appellate appearance by the [judge who entered the contempt order] is authorized.”

  2. “Contempt of court, in its broad sense, means disregard for or disobedience of the order or command of the court; this also includes the interruption of court proceedings.”
