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 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[A]n individual could have “control” over a child without also having ordinary custody of a child. “Control” only refers to the state of having restricting or govern ing power over someone, while “custody” implicates not only a power of oversight but also a responsibility for the care of an individual. Therefore, the reach of section 726.6 is broader than section 726.3 [which just talks about custody].”
