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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The majority of the Mississippi Supreme Court [in Sobieske v. Prestar, 755 So.2d 410 (Miss.2000) ] held that while they would have preferred to have had the Albright factors expressly enumerated; nevertheless, when considering the deference that must be shown to a chancellor, it could be inferred by the chancellor’s mention of Albright that he had considered those factors.... Therefore, in the present case, in light of the chancellor’s dissertation ... and his mention of Albright, we too allow an inference regarding the Albright factors that were not addressed.”
