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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “We previously stated: The donor’s privacy interests are substantial, as is the public interest in maintaining a safe and adequate blood supply. However, we believe that the Colemans’ right to litigate their claims against the donor substantially outweighs the competing interests, especially since there is significant evidence to suggest that the donor’s conduct was suspect. Accordingly, we conclude that the district court abused its discretion by enjoining the Colemans from bringing a separate action against the donor.”
