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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In Kelson v. Ahlborn, 87 Idaho 519 , 393 P.2d 578 , this court was presented with the issue of whether a defendant's cross-demand, arising from the same transaction as the plaintiff's original claim, could be set off against the plaintiff's claim even though affirmative relief on the cross-claims was barred by the statute of limitations. This court held that such cross-demands, although barred as the basis for affirmative relief, could be set off against the plaintiff's claim.”
