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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “(1) Prove that one of the defendants is a resident of the county of suit; (2) Prove a cause of action against the resident defendant; and (3) Allege a joint cause of action against the resident and non-resident defendants or one so intimately connected with the cause of action alleged against the nonresident defendant that the two may be joined to avoid a multiplicity of suits.”
