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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“this principle has not been applied to void, as a matter of law, a judgment ordering payment of child support .... “If, after the order . .. there was a reconciliation and the wife and . . . children resumed the family group and lived together with the defendant-husband, the necessity for the [child] support payments . . . ceased .... If thereafter there was a subsequent separation and need for [child] support payments . . ., the courts are open for whatever relief may be justified by the situation then existing. The original cause was at all times pending . . . .” (quoting Jackson v. Jackson, 14 N.C. App. 71, 74-75 , 187 S.E.2d 490, 493 (1972).)”
