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.
“Evidence suggested [the plaintiff] was familiar with the hazards of careless snowmobile operation and appreciated dangers in a fall during that kind of activity. The record shows no evidence that [the plaintiff] protested or cautioned [the snowmobile driver] about his manner of driving even though [the plaintiff] stated that he momentarily lost his balance on the first of three successive jumps over the snowbanks bordering Marsh Street.”
