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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Although the claim presently at issue seems on its face to be a back door method of recovery, it is apparently a good example of “ingenuity.” The record reflects a lump sum cash payment to Farm Bureau by Shoreline for a release of all claims. Shoreline’s claim against the LIGA is thus clearly one by an individual tortfeasor with an insolvent insurer. This is the exact situation recognized as a loophole by the Supreme Court. The legislature has not amended the statute to prohibit suits against the insured in this situation. ( 412 So. 2d at 1290 .)”
