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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“We deem the uniformity and clarity sought to be promoted by the UCC are better served by determining the predominant thrust of a mixed goods and services contract. Where, as here, the predominant thrust of the contract is the sale of goods, the purposes of the UCC are furthered by treating the contract as falling entirely within the jurisdiction of the UCC rather than dividing it into service and goods components.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“predominant factor, [its] thrust, [its] purpose, reasonably stated, is the rendition of service, with goods incidentally involved (e.g., contract with artist for painting) or is a transaction of sale, with labor incidentally involved (e.g., installation of a water heater in a bathroom).”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“1. Whether he was denied his constitutional right to the effective assistance of counsel at trial; and 2. Whether there was sufficient evidence to support the convictions.”
