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 26 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[W]e are aware of the strong presumption in favor of the constitutionality of statutes. It is well established that all doubt will be resolved in favor of the constitutionality of a statute, Bonvento v. Board of Public Instruction of Palm Beach County, 194 So.2d 605 (Fla. 1967), and that an act will not be declared unconstitutional unless it is determined to be invalid beyond a reasonable doubt. Knight and Wall Co. v. Bryant, 178 So.2d 5 (Fla. 1965), cert. denied 383 U.S. 958 , 86 S.Ct. 1223 , 16 L.Ed.2d 301 (1966).”

1 later decision quote this exact passage“the questions presented are of general public interest and importance, or unless such judgment as this court might enter would affect the rights of parties.”
