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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"[T]he legislature did not intend that § 25-4-78 (1) should act to disqualify employees given layoff notices from receipt of unemployment benefits where contract negotiations are ongoing. For us to so hold would give employers involved in the negotiations over union contracts the opportunity to use their economic position as a bargaining tool during the period prior to the expiration of the contract."”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““Also relevant, is the rule in Holmes v. Cook, 45 Ala.App. 688 , 236 So.2d 352 (1970), that the ‘provisions of disqualification from benefits [in the Unemployment Act] should be narrowly construed.’ A further guideline for our consideration of these claims is the procedural rule which provides that the employer has the burden of proving any disqualification under [§ 25-4-78(1) ] of the Unemployment Compensation Act. See United States Steel Corp. v. Glasgow, 40 Ala.App. 424 , 114 So.2d 565 (1958), rev’d on other grounds, sub nom. United States Steel Corp. v. Curry, 269 Ala. 8 , 114 So.2d 582 (1959).””
