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 29 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“As direct evidence is seldom available, fraudulent intent normally is determined from the totality of the circumstances. And since “subsequent conduct may reflect back to the promissor’s state of mind and thus may be considered in ascertaining whether there was fraudulent intent” at the time the promise was made, proper application of the “totality” test in this context often warrants consideration of post-transaction conduct and contemporaneous events.”
