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.
“"Although appellee has requested attorney's fees, his motion fails to allege his need or appellant's ability to pay. See Johnson v. Johnson, 346 So.2d 591 (Fla. 1st DCA 1977) ... and Patterson v. Patterson, 348 So.2d 592 (Fla. 1st DCA 1977)... . Therefore, although appellee prevails in the appeal there is no basis for our determination as to whether or not an attorney's fee may be properly allowed.... Accordingly, the motion for attorney's fees is denied." 348 So.2d at 598.”
