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 24 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The question is not whether there is substantial evidence contrary to the agency finding, but whether there is substantial evidence to support the agency finding.”
7 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the dissent“[F]actual issues ... are best determined by the Department. Newbanks v. Foursome Package & Bar, Inc., 201 Neb. 818 , 272 N.W.2d 372, 376 (1978). Unless such factual determinations made by the Department are clearly erroneous, we will not disaffirm them.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“[G]ranted that there is testimony of Dr. Jackson that would support a view contrary to the agency decision, there is also other medical testimony, in the deposition of Dr. Sanmartin, that supports the finding of the agency. Therefore, applying the Phillips & Sons admonition along with the statutory directive that we give the findings and inferences of the agency great weight on questions of fact, I concur in the majority opinion.”
