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 42 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“... [Achieving an orderly appellate process, deciding cases on the merits, and seeing to it that litigants do not needlessly suffer the loss of their constitutional right to appeal. Ready, supra, at 482 .”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“(2) The failure of a party to file timely a notice of appeal, cross-appeal, or motion for discretionary review shall result in a dismissal or denial. Failure to comply with other rules relating to appeals or motions for discretionary review does not affect the validity of the appeal or motion, but is ground for such action as the appellate court deems appropriate, which may include: (a) A dismissal of the appeal or denial of the motion for discretionary review, (b) Striking of pleadings, briefs, record or portions thereof, (c) Imposition of fines on counsel for failing to comply with these rules of not more than $500, and (d) Such further remedies as are specified in any applicable Rule.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““Recently, in Manly v. Manly, Ky., 669 S.W.2d 537 (1984), while sticking to our policy of strict compliance and automatic dismissal, we stated: ‘If relief is to be provided, however, it should come by way of a change in the Rule, not from a failure to enforce it.’ 669 S.W.2d at 540 . Since Manly , with the enthusiastic endorsement of the members of the Kentucky Bar Association voiced in a public hearing on proposed rule changes at the 1984 KBA Convention, relief has been provided by way of a change in the rules. New CR 73.02(2) is that change. Thus, we utilized the door to change left open in Manly . The time has come to recognize the change from the ‘policy of strict compliance with rules of procedure regarding appeals’ (Foremost, supra at 469 ), to a new policy of substantial compliance as set out in CR 73.02(2).” 705 S.W.2d at 481 .”
