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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“If an express contract exists, the six-year statute will apply; if the action is in tort involving injury to person or property or alleges an implied contract, the three-year statute will apply. To apply the three-year period, the nature of the injury must involve injury to persons or property. The pleadings cannot allege an action involving injury to persons or property as being based upon an implied contract for the purpose of invoking the longer six-year statute of limitations.”
