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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“At this hearing specific inquiry is to be made into all relevant facts, including; the scope and extent of the relationship existing on February 12, 1976, between Katharine Decker and Judith A. Peterson, the date this relationship began; authorization, if any, for Peterson to receive mail on Decker’s behalf; authorization, if any, for Peterson to open mail addressed to Decker in care of Peterson; the date Peterson personally received the envelope containing the right-to-sue notice at issue in this matter; the date Peterson notified Decker, if she did, of her receipt of the notice; and whether Decker received a copy of the notice separate from that address to her in care of Peterson and, if so, when. This list of inquiries is not intended to be exclusive; the district judge may expand the hearing into any other matters considered relevant to the mailing and receipt of the EEOC right-to-sue notice(s), and to the nature, extent, commencement, duration, qualifications, and limitations of the Decker-Peterson attorney-client relationship.”
