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 26 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"[I]t appears to be the duty of support imposed by a divorce or separate maintenance decree (as distinguished from the amount of support so decreed) that is enforced by the responding state under the [URESA] Act in question."”
4 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. Wheeler v. Wheeler · Moore v. Moore“"The Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of Support Law was intended to provide a simplified two-state procedure by which the obligor's duty to support an obligee residing in another state may be enforced expeditiously and with a minimum of expense to the obligee (or to the State, if the obligee is indigent). It contemplates that the court of the initiating state will refer the petition to the court of the responding state having jurisdiction of the obligor or his property. It is intended to provide remedies to the obligee `in addition to and not in substitution for any other remedies', Sec. 88.041, Fla. Stat. 1955, F.S.A."”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““Duty of support includes any duty of support imposed or imposable by law, or by any court order, decree or judgment, whether interlocutory or final, whether incidental to a proceeding for divorce, judicial separation, separate maintenance or otherwise.””
