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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“An [ALJ] shall not conduct a hearing if he or she is prejudiced or partial with respect to any party or has any interest in the matter pending for decision. If you object to the [ALJ] who will conduct the hearing, you must notify the [ALJ] at your earliest opportunity. The [ALJ] shall consider your objections and shall decide whether to proceed with the hearing or ■withdraw. If he or she withdraws, the Associate Commissioner for Hearings and Appeals, or his dr her delegate, will appoint another [ALJ] to conduct the hearing. If the [ALJ] does not withdraw, you may, after the hearing, present your objections to the Appeals Council as reasons why the hearing decision should be revised or a new hearing held before another [ALJ].”
