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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[Defendant] may succeed only on evidence of new conditions occurring since the last preceding decree of modification. Defendant had no such evidence. The preceding modification was a final judgment, unappealed from, and was res judicata as to all matters then adjudicated, including the $90 weekly child support allowance. Since defendant failed to show a change in circumstances occurring after the original modification the trial court erred in granting his present motion to modify.”
