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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The cost of education is a proper factor in awarding child support and private schooling may be a valid item of support. However, such support rests within the sound discretion of the trial court and that court’s judgment will be deferred to unless the evidence is palpably insufficient to support it.... “Recognition of costs for private education is subject to the condition that such private education is within the financial means of the person providing support.” (Emphasis added).”
