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 18 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[the only remedy from an erroneous order is appeal....”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“In order to obtain a preliminary inJunction, the moving party has the burden of showing by a preponderance of the evidence that: (1) the movant's remedies at law are inadequate, thus causing irreparable harm pending resolution of the substantive action; (2) the movant has at least a reasonable likelihood of success at trial by establishing a prima facie case; (8) the threatened injury to the movant outweighs the potential harm to the nonmovant resulting from the granting of the injunction; and (4) the public interest would not be dis-served. The movant must prove each of these requirements to obtain a preliminary injunction. If the movant fails to prove even one of these requirements, the trial court cannot grant an injuncetion.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“(allthough a defendant cannot be held in contempt of a void order, a defendant may be held in contempt of an erroneous order.... Accordingly, a defendant may not challenge a contempt finding based upon the prior order's non-jurisdictional irregu larities. A party must follow an erroneous order. The only remedy from an erroneous order is appeal and disobedience thereto is contempt.”
