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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(1) the challenged disciplinary determination is not supported by substantial evidence; (2) there has been a violation of one of the inmate’s fundamental [constitutional] due process rights, as enunciated in Wolff v. McDonnell, 418 U.S. 539 , 94 S.Ct. 2963 , 41 L.Ed.2d 935 (1974); or (3) other equitable considerations dictate expungement of the record rather than remittal for a new hearing.”
