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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“From the record, it does not appear that Appellant raised any of the arguments before the trial court that she now is asserting on appeal. On appeal, a party is bound by the position she took in trial court, and we can only review the case upon those theories. “Good faith” for the release as provided in § 537.060, RSMo 1994, was not questioned in the answer or affidavit. Appellant is foreclosed from now raising a different theory from the theory considered and rejected by the trial court.”
