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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“A particular meaning is ascribed to the term “secured claim” for bankruptcy purposes in Section 506(a) which provides that “[a]n allowed claim of a creditor secured by a lien on property in which the estate has an interest ... is a secured claim to the extent of the value of such creditor’s interest in the estate’s interest in such property .... ” 11 U.S.C. § 506 (a). In other words, the term secured claim, and thus secured debt, was intended by Congress to refer to a claim of a creditor secured by a lien on property in which the debtor’s bankruptcy estate owns an interest, and is limited in amount to the extent of the value of the creditor’s interest in the bankruptcy estate’s interest.”
