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

  1. “If there is no motion for substitution made within the [180-] day period, the action may be dismissed. Dismissal is not mandatory, despite the use of the word “shall” in the amended rule, even under these circumstances. [Cit.] Therefore, dismissal is not automatic. Any dismissal which is not automatic but which may be obtained, necessarily requires, to effect a dismissal, the entry of an order of dismissal.”
