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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The state, any county or municipality or any governmental agency, including, but not limited to, the department of human resources or the department of youth services, or any person, including a parent, legal guardian or other person standing in loco parentis, may petition to have any minor or child, as defined in this chapter, committed to the custody of the state department of mental health and mental retardation on the basis that such minor or child is mentally ill or mentally retarded and as a consequence of such mental illness or mental retardation poses a real and present threat of substantial harm to himself or to others.””
