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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“David and Karon were married in 1986. The couple lived in Walnut Grove, Mississippi on property that had been in David’s family for six generations. In 1988, Karon gave birth to Tanner, the Stuart’s only child. David owned a chicken farm which Karon primarily operated. Karon worked on the farm seven days a week while David worked as the maintenance foreman at the G.V. Sonny Montgomery V.A. Medical Center in Jackson. David initially paid Karon only $60 per week for her work on the chicken farm, but eventually raised her salary to $75 per week. After the chicken houses were paid off in 2000, David began paying Karon $185 per week. Karen [sic] also made extra income training horses and giving riding lessons and working in a doctor’s office part-time. However, Ka-ron quit training horses and giving riding lessons due to arthritis.”
