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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In deciding whether a case should be remanded, the district court should consider whether the evidence is not cumulative in light of those facts already before the Secretary and whether the Secretary’s decision might well have been different had the evidence been presented to the ALJ. See Zielinski v. Califa-no, 580 F.2d 103 (3d Cir.1978); Also, the court should consider the effect of the claimant’s failure to present the evidence in the first instance as well as whether the claimant would be denied a fair hearing if the additional evidence is not made part of the record.”
