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.
“We agree that the mother in a paternity action has the burden of establishing not only her income for the relevant period, but also other relevant facts, such ' as where the child has resided, who has taken care of the child, and what additional private or public resources have been utilized to provide for the child. Placing this burden on the mother is appropriate, because such information is solely and readily available to the mother, and the trial court cannot properly exercise its discretion in setting the amount of child support without it.”
