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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“When a person presents a check to a merchant in exchange for merchandise, [that person] is representing that the amount of ' money specified on the check will be given to the merchant when that check is presented to the drawer’s bank. If the drawer then commits some act in the future, such' as falsely reporting that the check was stolen, which causes the check to be dishonored and the merchant to receive no money for the merchandise, [the person] has made a misrepresentation as contemplated under G.S.14-100. In this case, there was ample evidence from which the jury could conclude that the defendant falsely reported the checks as having been stolen after having obtained merchandise in exchange for the checks.”
