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 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Tenn.R.Civ.P. 6.05 applies only in circumstances where a party “is required to do some act ... within a prescribed period after the service of a notice or other paper upon such party and the notice or paper is served upon such party by mail.” By its own terms, it does not apply in circumstances where a party is required to take some act within a prescribed period after the filing of a paper.”
