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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Where an appellant has provided defective briefs, the court in its discretion ... may scrutinize the merits of the case insofar as the record permits, or may dismiss the appeal if the absence of a [record] thwarts intelligent review.... [In this case,] there is a sufficient record to reach the merits ... and we choose to do so. Because, however, appellant has failed to provide a compliant statement of facts, we resolve any ambiguities against him.”
