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 249 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[T]he Court concluded that Charter had to satisfy an iron-clad requirement showing why the existing deadline 'cannot reasonably be met.' ")) Yet that is the standard set by the advisory committee and adopted by the Sixth Circuit. See Leary , 349 F.3d at 906 ("[A] court choosing to modify the schedule upon a showing of good cause[ ] may do so only 'if it cannot reasonably be met despite the diligence of the party seeking the extension.' ") (quoting Fed. R. Civ. P. 16 1983 advisory committee's note); id. at 907 ("[M]odification is permitted under Rule 16 if Plaintiffs can demonstrate 'good cause' for their failure to comply with the original schedule, by showing that despite their diligence they could not meet the original deadline.”
