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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The purpose of the doctrine of equitable estoppel is to avoid unjust results which are ‘contrary to good conscience and fair dealing.’ Markese v. Ellis (1967), 11 Ohio App.2d 160, 168 , 40 O.O.2d 313, 315 , 229 N.E.2d 70, 73 . While courts have discerned other elements in the application of equitable estoppel, the primary focus is on the conduct of the party against whom the estoppel is asserted and the reasonable reliance of the party asserting it. ‘Equitable estoppel precludes a party from asserting certain facts where the party, by his conduct, has induced another to change his position in good faith reliance upon that conduct. * * * ’ * * * In the present case we fail to find any conduct by any officer or agent of Pneumatic which reasonably induced or misled Kosa. * * * ” Id. at 652, 612 N.E.2d at 1293 .”
