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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The employee must establish that she is not able to engage in at least sedentary employment, within a 50 mile radius of her residence, due to her physical limitations. I interpret this to mean that, regardless of all vocational expert opinions, the burden rests on the shoulders of the injured employee to at least make a reasonable effort to secure employment if the evidence does not show her to be totally medically disabled. That the claimant here failed/refused to do a job search or to check any jobs made available to her negates an award of permanent total disability. *”
