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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

Those to whom disclosure is in furtherance of the rendition of legal services to the client. 2. Those reasonably nécessary for the transmission of the communication.”
