Most-quoted passages

These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“It is well settled that when regulations are published in the Federal Register they give legal notice of their contents to all who may be affected thereby. Federal Crop Insurance Corp. v. Merrill, 332 U.S. 380 , 68 S.Ct. 1 , 92 L.Ed. 10 (1947); Federal Register Act of 1935, 49 Stat. 500 , 502, 44 U.S.C. § 1507 . This court has recognized this principle on several occasions. See, e.g., Coat Corp. of America v. United States, 123 Ct.Cl. 176, 196 , 105 F.Supp. 832, 834 (1952); Lynsky v. United States, 130 Ct.Cl. 149, 153 , 126 F.Supp. 453, 456 (1954).”
