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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“This case involves more than simply writing a check on a closed account. [The defendant] opened the account at Mercantile Bank using an alias, then closed it six months later. The following month [the defendant] opened an account at Community Bank using a different alias, and later directed an acquaintance to deposit the check drawn of the closed Mercantile account into the Community account. Community Bank honored the bad check and suffered a loss.”
