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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Any proceedings in the trial court contrary to the mandate are null and void. Conversely, a trial court also risks error in doing less than the mandate requires. By failing to address all of the issues returned to the trial court upon remand, there is a substantial danger that the resulting judgment will lack finality. Put another way, a trial court’s failure to complete its obligation under a mandate may prevent it from exhausting its jurisdiction over the case.”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. Lombardo v. Lombardo“Where the mandate contains express instructions that direct the trial court to take a specified action, the trial court has no authority to deviate from those instructions.”
