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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Briefly summarized, it can be said that defendant’s financial position has improved considerably over what it was at the time the divorce was granted. His remarriage was not such a change of circumstances as to call for modification of the decree, and on the record in this case he is not entitled to relief merely because of the recent employment of plaintiff.- Christensen v. Christensen, 295 Mich. 203 .””
