These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 53 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“That the contract between DMH and Campbell was a sham; that Campbell permitted the use of his name in the contract with Whiteside Construction for the benefit of DMH; that there was no intent to impose a contractual obligation on Campbell ...; that the purpose of using Campbell’s name in the contract ... purporting to be a subcontract between Campbell and Whiteside Construction, and the contract ... purporting to be a subcontract between DMH and Campbell, was to make it appear that Campbell was a subcontractor of DMH and Whiteside Construction a subcontractor of Campbell, and thereby insulate DMH from liability to material-men for materials furnished to White-side Construction for the housing project, and that Campbell’s relationship with DMH was that of agent or employee.”
