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

  1. “‘Lack of good faith in refusing a job offer does not necessarily mean fraud, but includes conduct which is inconsistent with a genuine desire to work and to be self-supporting. . . . [W]hen the job offered is reasonably similar to the claimant’s former job, with which she presumably had no difficulty, a refusal of the job offer without a trial because it is “not in the line of [her] work” may properly be taken by the board to indicate lack of good faith as that phrase is used in this connection.’”
