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 64 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(1) the release must be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the employee signing the release, or by the average individual eligible to participate; (2) the release must specifically refer to claims arising under the ADEA; (3) the release must not purport to encompass claims that may arise after the date of execution; (4) the employer must provide consideration for the waiver or release of ADEA claims above and beyond that to which the employee would otherwise already be entitled; (5) the employee must be advised in writing to consult with an attorney prior to executing the agreement; (6) the employee must be given at least 21 days within which to consider the agreement or 45 days to consider signing if the waiver is offered in connection with an “exit incentive or other employment termination;” (7) the release must allow the employee to revoke the agreement up to 7 days after signing; and (8) if the release is offered in connection with an exit incentive or group termination program, the employer must provide information relating to the job titles and ages of those eligible for the program, and the corresponding information relating to employees in the same job titles who were not eligible or not selected for the program.”
