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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“" ‘[E]stoppel by acquiescence occurs when a person knows or ought to know of an entitlement to enforce a right and neglects to do so for such time as would imply an intention to waive or abandon the right.' ” “Although this doctrine bears an 'estoppel' label, it is, in reality, a waiver theory.” Unlike equitable estoppel, estoppel by acquiescence does not require a showing of detrimental reliance or prejudice. Estoppel by acquiescence applies when (1) a party “has full knowledge of his rights and the material facts”; (2) “remains inactive for a considerable time”; and (3) acts in a manner that "leads the other party to believe the act [now complained of] has been approved.””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“the needs of the party making the request, the ability of the other party to pay, and whether the party making the request was obligated to defend the trial court's decision on appeal.”
