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

  1. “Here, there are two attorney’s fees provisions in the antenuptial agreement. The husband sought, and the trial court awarded, temporary attorney’s fees to defend the dissolution or annulment of his marriage and the enforcement of the antenuptial agreement. While the court may ultimately enforce the prevailing party attorney’s fees provision concerning the litigation over the enforceability of the antenuptial agreement under Lashkajani, at this point there is no prevailing party. And, while the first section of the attorney’s fees provision requires each party to pay his or her own attorneys’ fees and costs, that provision cannot be enforced because it violates Florida’s long-standing policy against waiver of pre-dissolution support. See Belcher v. Belcher, 271 So.2d 7 (Fla.1972).”
