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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In reviewing the rejection before us, we have appropriately looked to the disclosure in its entirety and have arrived at a conclusion which is necessarily to some extent subjective. . we find ourselves confronted with no adequate justification for denying appellant patent protection of the scope sought. The board’s opinion focuses too narrowly on the listing of specific materials by trademark or trade name. We stress the need to inject the totality of the disclosure into the examination for sufficiency under § 112 of this specification. [Emphasis supplied.]”
