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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Pursuant to the Larson test, an employee may be barred from recovering workers’ compensation benefits as a result of a false statement at the time of hiring when the employer proves: (1) The employee must have knowingly and wilfully made a false representation as to his or her physical condition. (2) The employer must have relied upon the false representation and this reliance must have been a substantial factor in the hiring. (3) There must have been a causal connection between the false representation and the injury. 3 Larson’s Workers’ Compensation Law § 66.04 (2006) (footnotes omitted).”
