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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “[W]e think it clear from the Holly case, particularly when read in the light of Justice Shaw's dissenting opinion — which does directly treat the point — that the language of the statute creates an absolute privilege and means that any existing defamation action has been totally abolished.”
