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.
““... [I]n the bankruptcy context 11 U.S.C. § 522 (m) provides the answer and is paramount to State law. New York law permits a $10,000 exemption to a debtor against his creditors. Therefore, 11 U.S.C. § 522 (m) permits joint debtors to each claim a $10,000 exemption on their own estate, for an aggregate of $20,000 against the whole of their combined equity.””
