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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “[W]ere we to allow disappointed bidders such as Gosnell to challenge the manner in which the FDIC chooses to dispose of its assets, we would undermine Congress’ intent to allow the FDIC broad discretion in the disposition of its assets.”

  2. “Specifically, we believe that allowing [plaintiff] to sue based on his status as a disappointed bidder would be inconsistent with FIRREA’s goal of giving the FDIC broad discretion in disposing of assets under its control. Under 12 U.S.C. § 1821 (d)(2)(G)(i) (II), the FDIC as receiver may “transfer any asset or liability ... without any approval, assignment, or consent with respect to such transfer,” and, under 12 U.S.C. § 1823 (d)(3)(A), the FDIC enjoys the same power when acting in its corporate capacity____ [W]ere we to allow disappointed bidders such as [plaintiff] to challenge the manner in which the FDIC chooses to dispose of its assets, we would undermine Congress’ intent to allow the FDIC broad discretion in the disposition of assets.”

  3. “In cases where the plaintiff is not itself the subject of the contested regulatory action, the [zone of interests] test denies a right of review if the plaintiffs interests are so marginally related to or inconsistent with the purposes implicit in the statute that it cannot be assumed that Congress intended to permit the suit.”
