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 72 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Once either the Commission or the charging party has filed suit, § 2000e-5(f)(1) speaks only in terms of intervention—the absolute right of the charging party to intervene if the Commission elects to file suit within 180 days; the permissive right of intervention on the part of the Commission in the private action. The statute cannot be read to warrant duplicitous lawsuits when both actions find their genesis in one unlawful employment practice charge.””
3 later decisions quote this exact passage““1. A charge must be filed within 180 days after the occurrence of an alleged unlawful employment practice. “2. If the Commission finds reasonable cause to believe that the charge is true, and conciliation attempts prove unsuccessful, the Commission may bring suit against the respondent within 180 days of the filing of the charge. The charging party shall have the right to intervene in the Commission’s suit. “3. If the Commission fails to file an action within 180 days, it shall notify the charging party. “4. Within 90 days after receipt of notice, the charging party may bring a civil action against the respondent. Should a private action be brought, the Commission may intervene, in the discretion of the court, upon certification - that the case is of general public importance.””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“fully confident that (the District Court) * * * will permit intervention and enlargement of the scope of the action by the Commission if necessary to the rendering of full and complete justice.”
