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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Now, with these rights, duties and obligations pertaining to the mother and father of a bastard child, how can it be reasonably said that the complaining mother has no pecuniary interest in the result of the suit. One of' the objects of the statute is to compel him to pay to her such sum of money or other property as she may agree to receive in full satisfaction. Such is the language of the statute.” (State v. Nestaval, 72 Minn. 415, 417 , 75 N. W. 725 .)”
