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 19 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[W]here the Legislature has specifically delegated rule-making authority to an agency, the agency's regulations are presumed valid, and only compelling reasons demonstrating that the regulation conflicts with the intent and purpose of the legislation[ [8] ] warrant striking down a challenged regulation. Thus, the regulation will be upheld if reasonably consistent with the statute being implemented. The wisdom or desirability of the rule is not a question for the court's review, although the court's purpose is to ascertain and give effect to the Legislature's intent.”
