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.
“Defendants — Appellants argue that the district court remanded the case based on a discretionary finding that Plaintiffs — Appellees had not abused the forum-selection process. The district court remanded this case, however, because the notice of removal was untimely under § 1446(b), not based, for example, on its discretion to remand supplemental state law claims. As Defendants — Appellants concede, the one-year time limit of § 1446(b) for removing a case is procedural; thus, the district court’s remand on that basis falls within the ambit of § 1447(d) and this court lacks jurisdiction to hear this appeal.”
