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.

  1. ““[cjlaims for loss of consortium are governed by the law of the state where the marriage is domiciled, rather than by the law of the state where the [physical] injury occurred. . . . The state in which the marriage is domiciled has a greater interest... in a loss of consortium case, than does the state where the incident occurred.””
