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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Under Bankruptcy Rule 4003(c), the objecting party has the burden of proving that the exemptions claimed ... are not properly claimed.... When an issue is in doubt because of the proof provided and the Court would be required to speculate, the party upon whom the burden of proof ultimately rests must lose. Id. at 162. Thus, the exemptions claimed by the Debtors are presumed valid until proven otherwise.”
