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.

“[i]t is well-known that the primary purpose of a residency program is not employment or a stipend, but the academic training and academic certification for successful completion of the program.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“[W]e need not inquire what process was due or whether that process was afforded Davis prior to his termination from employment, because it is undisputed that Davis received his full salary under his employment contract. We have found that an employee suffers no com-pensable damage from an early employment termination where he has been paid his full salary for the contract year. We also find no support in the case law for Davis’s claim that he is entitled to the duties and responsibilities of his employment as specified under the contract.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority“A disciplinary dismissal requires that the student be given oral or written notice of the charges and evidence against him and the opportunity to present his side of the story....
