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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “the duty of the noncustodial parent to support a child is independent of the custodial parent’s duty to permit visitation. The reason for the rule is that when visitation is denied, the noncustodial parent has numerous legal remedies to enforce the judgment. Sanctions include holding the custodial parent in contempt, and ordering a modification of custody.”

  2. “Application of the equitable principle requires a showing of delay by the person asserting a legal right and resultant injury or prejudice by reason of the delay, or a change in position or condition which renders it inequitable to enforce the legal right.”
