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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“These motions are either facially insufficient or completely misleading, and illustrate problems with pro se representation which this court is confronting with increasing frequency. The filing of inappropriate, repetitive, or frivolous pleadings places an unwarranted burden upon the staff of this court and interferes with the prompt dispatch of the court’s duties. We therefore deem it appropriate to issue this order in opinion form, not just to admonish Blanton personally but to caution all potential pro se litigants that we will insist upon certain standards of diligence and responsibility even as we take into consideration the less stringent technical requirements applicable to prisoner self-representation.”
