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.
“It is uncontroverted in the present case that Mr. Rubin rendered legal service that helped to create the fund herein. He was a party to the decision, relief from which his motion is directed. His Motion for Relief from Judgment is based upon rights vested in him, not his client, and therefore he has standing to enforce those rights.”
