Most-quoted passages

These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 26 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Its [Summit’s] holding by its terms extends “only” to instances where a plaintiff who lacks standing to assert a claim attempts to substitute “new plaintiffs, a new class, and a new cause of action,” [citation omitted]. Here, by contrast, the operative facts and the cause of action are not changed, but only the formally named plaintiff.”
