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 19 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“7. The Court finds that [Mr. Everett] failed to make payments of support as ordered by this Court and in addition, failed to make payments of support as ordered by the Colorado Court; that [Mr. Everett’s] failure to pay the support payments hereto mentioned was deliberate, intentional and willful in that he: a) Has been and is financially able to make the required payments; and b) Has intentionally and contumaciously placed himself in a position so that he could not comply with the Court Order; and c) Has the present financial ability to satisfy the arrearage or can obtain the means by which the arrearage could be satisfied; and in this regard the Court specifically finds that [Mr. Everett] was duly served with a subpoena to produce his income tax returns, bank statements and financial records at court and failed and refused to do so. 8. The Court finds that [Mr. Everett] has failed to present adequate facts or persuasive evidence to excuse his noncompliance with said Order, to indicate compliance with the Court Order, or that he has not willfully and intentionally disobeyed this Court’s Order. The Court finds no facts presented by the evidence that indicate an intent by [Mr. Everett] to comply with either the Missouri or Colorado Court Orders, to excuse his failure to comply with said Orders or to show cause why he should not be held in contempt.”
