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 19 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The minutes of a hearing held prior to the enactment of the Mason Law reveal that the Legislature specifically considered whether -the Tiger Vicuna, Red Wolf, Polar Hear, Mountain Lion, Jaguar,~ Ocelot, Margay, Leopard, Cheetah and ^jCrocbdile are subjects of commercial exploitation and are threatened. Thus, it appears that the Legislature rejected the Industry’s assumption and found otherwise. Accordingly, we do not have the power to disturb these findings.” (Emphasis added)”
