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 32 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“A party-plaintiff may be an individual, a corporation, or an association. The individual is the only party-plaintiff who can appear and manage his case personally. Neither a corporation nor a partnership can physically appear personally. [Italics in original.] ******* It is generally accepted that when a corporation is a “party” it may not appear and manage its case even where it is a “consignee.” [Citing cases.] ******* Buie 9 of the Customs Court permits parties to appear personally and manage their oases. It does not permit parties to appear in a representative capacity and manage cases for others, unless they are attorneys duly admitted under the rules of the court to practice at its bar. [Italics appear in original.]”

1 later decision quote this exact passage“* * * We agree with the trial court that permission to “appear personally and manage their cases” is so clear that it forecloses a construction that would permit parties to “appear in a representative capacity and manage cases for others,” unless they are duly admitted members of the bar of the trial court. This interpretation is in harmony with the overwhelming weight of apposite authority.”
