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

  1. “First, the claimant must not have engaged in “substantial gainful activity” since the onset of the impairment. Sec ond, the claimant must show that she has a severe impairment, that is, one that “significantly limits [the claimant’s] physical or mental ability to do basic work activities.” Third, if the impairment is severe, the Commissioner must determine whether the impairment meets or equals a listed impairment in Appendix 1 [to Subpart P of 20 C.F.R. Part 404], which leads to a conclusive presumption of disability and ends the inquiry. If the impairment is not one that the SSA presumes to be disabling, however, then the evaluation continues to a fourth step. At this stage, the Commissioner determines whether the claimant is incapable of performing work that she has done in the past. If incapable of the past work, then at the fifth step, the Commissioner must determine the claimant’s RFC [residual functional capacity] to see if she can perform other work that exists in substantial numbers in the national economy.”
