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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“We do not read Blackmon to automatically terminate rehabilitative alimony on remarriage. In Blackmon the court found a change of circumstances which could have been the remarriage "to a gentleman possessed of ample funds to support [the ex-wife]," rather than the mere fact of a remarriage. Other districts in Florida are in accord. See Frye v. Frye, 385 So.2d 1383 (Fla. 2d DCA 1980) (unless the parties specifically agree, rehabilitative alimony does not necessarily terminate on the remarriage of the recipient) ..... However, resolution of the remarriage-rehabilitative alimony controversy may be reserved for another day .. . [W]e are of the view that the award is, in effect, a form of additional child support.”
