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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In Stewart , the court, relying on Mt. Healthy City School Dist. Bd. of Educ. v. Doyle, 429 U.S. 274 , 97 S.Ct. 568 , 50 L.Ed.2d 471 (1977), observed that whether a local school board is protected by Eleventh Amendment immunity depends on whether the school board is properly classified as “an arm of the state.” 908 F.Supp. [F.2d] at 1509. The court went on to state that “the ultimate question of whether the state is the ‘real party in interest’ is one of federal law, not state law.” Id. (citing Howlett v. Rose, 496 U.S. 356 , 110 S.Ct. 2430 , 110 L.Ed.2d 332 (1990)). However, the defendants argue that Seminole Tribe stands for the further proposition that, a state entity’s status, for purposes of Eleventh Amendment immunity analysis (i.e. whether an entity is or is not an “arm” of the state), is controlled by state law rather than federal law. The Court does not read Seminole Tribe to support defendants’ contention. The Court will not diverge from controlling precedent absent a clear invitation from the Eleventh Circuit or Supreme Court.”
