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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“here the regulations, if enforced, would require debtors to pay prepetition debts as a condition of performing under a Chapter 13 plan. Both the treatment of prepetition debts and performance in accordance with a plan under Chapter 13 form the basis of much of the Bankruptcy Code and are of fundamental concern to the Court in its administration of proceedings under the Code. Thus, the Court cannot allow state law to determine the treatment of prepetition debts except insofar as the differences in treatment are authorized by the Code. The enforcement of this regulation would cause debtor to pay in full certain unsecured debts, resulting in preferential or discriminatory treatment, or both, of some creditors in relation to others.”
