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.
“Under the [plaintiffs] own argument, ... we would need to resort to evidence or documents extraneous to the disclosure statement. This the plain language of the statute forbids us to do so. As the Seventh Circuit noted, such an interpretation of TILA would: “impose a duty of inquiry on financial institutions that serve as assignees. Yet this is the very kind of duty that the statute precludes, by limiting the required inquiry to defects that can be ascertained from the face of the documents themselves.””
