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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“as required by the plain language of section 160A-363(e). b.) Defendant's Motion to Dismiss Next, defendant argues the trial court erred by denying its motion to dismiss plaintiffs' complaint because it failed to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Specifically, defendant contends that a claimant is not entitled to recover interest pursuant to N.C. Gen.Stat. § 160A-363(e) when the municipality has already voluntarily refunded the illegally extracted fee. We disagree.”
