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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The threshold issue is whether the administrator was foreclosed from reviewing the ALJ’s findings because the solicitor had failed to file timely objections. The regulations required the solicitor to file exceptions by February 15, 1979. We conclude that we need not decide the meaning of the word “filed” in the regulations since the administrator was entitled to waive the filing deadline in the interest of justice. An administrative agency may waive procedural requirements in the interest of justice, provided such a waiver will not prejudice the other party, (citing cases), (emphasis supplied, except that the word “procedural” was italicized by the Court.)”
