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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“We agree Indiana follows the general rule where an obligation is payable in installments, the statute of limitations runs as to each installment as it becomes due. This rule applies to each installment of wages due. However, we do not agree that a continuing wrong occurred here. The instant case involves a one time paid percentage increase to officers. Smith does not allege CDMI is still in effect. Although the alleged wrong may have a present impact upon his salary, it is not a continuing wrong.”
