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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“1. Do absent parties have a right or interest related to the claim? 2. If so, what is the nature of that right or interest? 3. Is that right or interest essential to the merits of the issue ? 4. Can justice be afforded without violating the due process rights of absent parties?”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“The relief requested by [the redevelopers] and granted by the court directly precluded performance of the [landowner’s]/RDA contract; [the landowner’s] rights were thus directly connected with the litigation, were adverse to those of RDA, and were obviously not protected by RDA’s capitulation in the suit. Finally, with regard to due process, we note that if the court’s decree is permitted to stand, [the landowner] will have lost valuable rights to property under the agreement with RDA without having had the opportunity to defend those rights as a participant in the litigation. (Emphasis in original.)”
