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 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In our view, this paragraph constitutes an unnecessarily arbitrary and unjustified interference with the rights of the father and the child to each other's company. Gardner v. Gardner, 494 So.2d 500 (Fla. 4th DCA 1986), appeal dismissed, 504 So.2d 767 (Fla.1987). The understandable concerns of the trial court in this regard are better met by the inclusion of a by-now routine provision requiring the father to give reasonable notice if he does not exercise his visitation rights at any particular time and the ongoing authority of the court over any abuses of that process.”
