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.
“The net result of this failure to assist the appellant is that the Board’s conclusion that “[tjhere is no evidence showing that a lack of feeling in the right wrist or hand played a significant role in the injury to the right wrist ...” is a self-fulfilling prophe[c]y as long as the duty to assist is not carried out. Accordingly, we vacate the Board’s decision, and remand this matter for further development and readjudi-cation consistent with this opinion.”
