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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““[a] claim is deemed ‘allowed’ if proof thereof is timely filed pursuant to Code section 501, and: (1) no objection is made thereto; or (2) the bankruptcy court, after notice and a hearing, determines the validity of the claim notwithstanding the objection of a party in interest. 11 U.S.C. § 502 . The lien-voiding mechanism of § 506(d), however, does not apply to claims disallowed merely because no proof has been filed. See 11 U.S.C. § 506 (d)(2) (excepting from operation of statute liens evidencing any claim that ‘is not an allowed secured claim due only to the failure of any entity to file a proof of such claim under section 501 of this title’ ”).”
