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.
“[T]he State presented direct evidence in the form of bank records and the state’s "data base” to prove that suppliers were not paid because TCM [the contractor] did not apply all the money it received from the each owner to the labor and material bills it incurred on each respective owner’s job. Second, in this case there were two victims and the bank records clearly show that money from one victim was being used to settle claims belonging to another victim and vice versa, and that in the end, materi-almen from both jobs were not paid. Finally, there were numerous materialmen liens filed in this case.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“[T]he statute requires more than simply proof that a contractor has left unpaid claims for materials and labor at the end of a construction contract. The statute clearly does not criminalize a bad business deal made by a contractor who otherwise applies all of the funds received under the contract for legitimate expenses and claims for materials and labor in the course of the project, although he cannot pay all of them because, for one reason or another, the project has exceeded its estimated' costs.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“No person, contractor, subcontractor, or agent of a contractor or subcontractor, who has received money on account of a contract for the construction, erection, or repair of a building, structure, or other improvement, including contracts and mortgages for interim financing, shall knowingly fail to apply the money received as necessary to settle claims for material and labor due for the construction or under the contract.”
