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 37 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ ‘Reasonable reliance’- — measured by an objective standard — is a requirement under various doctrines. See, e.g., Restatement (Second) of Contracts § 139 (1981) (reliance must be reasonable in a contract action). However, the Supreme Court has held that a less demanding ‘intermediate’ standard, which it calls ‘justifiable reliance,’ applies under section 523(a)(2)(A)”. Field v. Mans, 516 U.S. 59, 73-74 , 116 S.Ct. 437 , 133 L.Ed.2d 351 (1995). In particular, the Court said that the circumstances of the reliance claim must be taken into account and that the individual is not obliged to investigate statements made to him (although he cannot shut his eyes to an obvious falsehood). See id. at 71 , 516 U.S. 59 , 116 S.Ct. 437 , 133 L.Ed.2d 351 .”
