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 30 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Apparently, every other circuit to have weighed in on the issue has rejected the posi tion adopted by Mattson; indeed, two circuits termed the position later adopted by Mattson 'frivolous.' ” (citations omitted)). In Maloy, which addressed the same statute of limitations at issue in Mattson, we explicitly declined to follow Mattson's holding that Rule 6(a) should not apply to this statute of limitations (though we agreed with other aspects of that ruling). We held: "We find the reasoning of the Eighth Circuit persuasive and adopt the approach used in Mattson, save for the calculation of the days from the mailing of the collection letter. As stated above, in computing the statute of limitations we will exclude the mailing date as the triggering date of the alleged ... violation in accordance with Rule 6(a).”
