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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“First, a mistake made by Plaintiffs attorney should not automatically bar Plaintiffs action forever. Secondly, Defendants were well aware of Plaintiffs intentions to litigate his action in City Court. In fact, Defendants did not answer the District Court petition and counsel’s misfiling the petition was the only step taken towards litigation in District Court because Plaintiffs attorney informed Defendants of his plans to file in City Court. Third, we find that Defendants are not prejudiced by the overruling of the exception of res judicata. In the trial transcript, Defendants admitted that they were not prejudiced.”
