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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““This court has previously expressed the view that formal rules of pleading and procedure are not applicable to workers’ compensation proceedings. W.S. Tyler Co. v. Rebic (1928), 118 Ohio St. 522 [ 161 N.E. 790 ]; Kaiser v. Indus. Comm. (1940), 136 Ohio St. 440, 444 [ 17 O.O. 22, 24 , 26 N.E.2d 449 , 452], An injured employee’s claim should not be unjustly defeated by a mere technicality. Roma v. Indus. Comm. (1918), 97 Ohio St. 247 [ 119 N.E. 461 ]. This policy is consistent with the General Assembly’s express intent that R.C. Chapter 4123 be liberally construed in favor of the claimant.””
