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.
“Whether an action accrues to a creditor individually, such that a creditor has standing, or generally, such that a trustee has standing, requires the court to look “to the injury for which relief is sought and consider whether it is peculiar and personal to the [creditor] or general and common to the ... creditors.” “A cause of action is ‘personal’ if the claimant [or creditor] himself is harmed and no other claimant or creditor has an interest in the cause.” A cause of action is general if the injury is common to all creditors.”
