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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Appellant (employer) contends the Board failed to make sufficient findings of fact as required by KRS 342.275, specifically in not finding the amount of disability caused by trauma and the amount which resulted from a pre-existing condition. While the Board was remiss in not making specific affirmative findings of fact, it assessed appellant with full liability. Hence it is implicit in the award that no pre-existing condition, as that term is used in KRS 342.120, contributed to Gregory’s (employee) present disability. (Parenthetical inserts ours for clarification).”
