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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(1) If declaratory relief is sought, a person who has or claims any interest which would be affected by the declaration, shall be made a party. (2) Except in a class action, the declaration may not prejudice the rights of any person not a party to the proceeding.”
