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.
““It is, of course, well-established that ‘good cause’ determinations entail discretionary conclusions by the [trial] court and will not be disturbed absent an abuse of discretion.” Floyd v. United States, 900 F.2d 1045, 1046 (7th Cir.1990). The trial court abuses its discretion in determining whether there is “good cause” if its decision is arbitrary, capricious, or whimsical. Cox v. Sandia Corp., 941 F.2d 1124, 1125 (10th Cir.1991).”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“If a service of the summons and complaint is not made upon a defendant within 120 days after the filing of the complaint and the party on whose behalf such service is required cannot show good cause why such service was not made within that period, the action shall be dismissed as to that defendant without prejudice upon the court’s own initiative with notice to such party or upon motion.”
