Most-quoted passages

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.
“are deemed to be supported by sufficient evidence and are binding on appeal.”
5 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. In re A.M.B. · In re Z.E.“whether the trial court's findings of fact were based on clear, cogent, and convincing evidence, and whether those findings of fact support a conclusion that parental termination should occur[.]”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“[a]lthough the trial court should have stated in its written termination order that it utilized the standard of proof specified in N.C. Gen.Stat. § 7B-1109(f), the fact that the trial court orally indicated that it employed the appropriate standard and the fact that the language actually used by the trial court is reasonably close to the wording that the trial court should have employed satisfies us that the trial court did, in fact, make its factual findings on the basis of the correct legal standard.”
