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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“This new section is based on section 1601(c.l) of the Second Class Township Code [Act of May 1, 1933, P.L. 103, as amended, 53 P.S. §§ 65101-68701], and, therefore, enforcement of ordinances is now bifurcated with violations for certain ordinances to be enforced civilly (clause (1)) and others to be enforced as summary offenses (clause (2)). (Previously, any violation or failure to comply with any provision of any borough ordinance constituted a summary offense. See old section 3301 of the Borough Code).”
