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

  1. “"Undue prejudice is not mere harm to the non-movant but a denial of the opportunity to present facts or evidence which would have been offered had the amendment been timely." Does I through III v. District of Columbia , 815 F.Supp.2d 208 , 215 (D.D.C. 2011) (internal quotation marks omitted). "[A]n amendment is not automatically deemed prejudicial if it causes the non-movant to expend additional resources. Any amendment will require some expenditure of resources on the part of the non-moving party. 'Inconvenience or additional cost to a defendant is not necessarily undue prejudice.' " United States ex rel. Westrick v. Second Chance Body Armor, Inc. , 301 F.R.D. 5 , 9 (D.D.C. 2013) (quoting City of Moundridge v. Exxon Mobil Corp. , 250 F.R.D. 1 , 6-7 (D.D.C. 2008) ). Indeed, "if [a] court were to employ a policy of denying [ ] leave to amend in every situation where an amended [pleading] may result in additional discovery or expense, then [the] court would fail to abide by the legal standard of granting leave 'freely ... when justice so requires.' " Hisler v. Gallaudet Univ. , 206 F.R.D. 11 , 14 (D.D.C. 2002) (quoting Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(2) ).”
