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 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The federal act carves an exception for cases in which the person aggrieved has initially instituted proceedings with a state or local fair employment practice (FEP) agency having the authority to grant or seek relief, such as the TCHR. In that instance, the charge shall be filed with the EEOC within 300 days of the violation. A nominal filing is all that is required to “institute proceedings” under Section 706(e). The nominal filing required to institute state proceedings occurs when the EEOC transmits the complaint on a standard form. [Citations omitted].”
