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

  1. “In order for jurisdiction to lie in Virginia, a claimant must show that (1) his contract of employment was made in Virginia; and (2) the employer’s place of business is in Virginia, provided the contract of employment was not expressly for service exclusively performed outside of Virginia. We are bound by the commission’s finding that it had jurisdiction ... unless we find that the commission was plainly wrong in concluding that Lopez’s evidence proved both of these elements.”
