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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. ““the court shall, after opportunity for hearing, require the party or deponent whose failure to answer adequately or otherwise to make discovery necessitated the motion, or the party or attorney advising such conduct, or both of them, to pay to the moving party the reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining the order, including attorney’s fees, unless the court finds that opposition was substantially justified or that other circumstances make an award of expenses unjust.””

  2. “The objections were interposed for delay ... There was a refusal to make discovery for which I can impose consequences and I can impose sanctions under Rule 37 or Rule 11 ... You seem to have a practice or a policy that you just make a blanket objection ... to have 30 days to respond, and then to file a blanket objection as opposed to asking for more time is simply unreasonable.”

  3. “fees may be demonstrated by showing that a defendant’s obstinacy in granting a plaintiff his clear legal rights necessitated resort to legal action with all the expense and delay entailed in litigation.”
