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.
“[o]nce a carrier has reported the issuance of a policy, as mandated by the regulations, the insurer is fully liable for the obligations of the operator.... The carrier is required to discharge the statutory and regulatory duties imposed on the employer, thus stepping into his shoes.... Moreover, unlike an indemnification policy, the Black Lung Benefits scheme contemplates that the insurer, as a party, may be liable in the original claims proceeding.”
