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.
“‘Whether an agreement is ambiguous is a question of law for the trial court. When the agreement is reasonably sus ceptible to more than one meaning, an ambiguity exists. Where an ambiguity exists, the trial court may admit parol evidence to explain or clarify the ambiguity. Once the trial court finds the agreement to be ambiguous in any respect, determination of the true meaning of the agreement is a question for the trial court.””
