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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[The [plaintiffs] failled] to show that the surveyor owed a duty of care to them or that they had relied upon the survey. The survey at issue was prepared ... on behalf of the [adjoining property owner] and there was no allegation of any action taken by the [plaintiffs] in reliance upon the survey. In fact, the [plaintiffs] disputed the boundary line established by the survey, rather than relied upon it.”
