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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“in determining when the cause of action accrues in § 1983 cases, we look to the event that should have alerted the typical lay person to protect his or her rights. Cooey II held, rightly or wrongly, that the relevant date is the later of either (1) the conclusion of direct review ..., or (2) ... when Ohio adopted lethal injection as the sole method of execution. Nothing in Baze gives us cause to question Cooey II’s determination of when the statute-of-limitations clock begins to tick.”
