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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““[t]he [summary] judgment sought shall be rendered forthwith if the pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any, show that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as [a] matter of law.””
1 later decision quote this exact passage“that § 28-29-20 in the context of the entire statutory scheme does not immunize employees, directors, officers, or agents 'where they are individually legally liable' but does immunize them when they are sued to impute liability to the employer.”
