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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[Guffey] was not [Independent Fire’s] agent for the purposes of binding [Independent Fire] for the premium price quoted by [Guffey]. Of particular importance is the fact that [Guffey] could only quote premiums and premium schedules but could not bind [Independent Fire] prior to [Independent Fire’s] approval of a policy. Additionally, [Guffey] was not bound to place all its insurance with [Independent Fire], but could place coverage with any company with which it was licensed to do business. Id. at 858.”
