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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The procedure for summary judgment under CR 56.01 is a handy tool for the bench and bar alike, but the procedure is a drastic one and should not be invoked where a genuine issue of a material fact is involved. Cf. Conley v. Hall, Ky., 395 S.W.2d 575 (1965). It is concluded there were genuine issues of material facts raised in the pleadings and that appellants were entitled to a jury trial on those issues.””
