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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““There are some exceptions to this use of the remedy. A writ may be denied if the prior order was ‘granted by a court that lacked jurisdiction’ § 14.10(b)(1), ‘if the child has not been in the relator’s possession for at least six months’ § 14.10(b)(2), ‘if there is a serious immediate question concerning the welfare of the child’ § 14.10(c), or ‘if the right to possession of a child is not governed by a court order’ § 14.10(e).””
