More on how this was screened

Nearby uses of “overruled” disposed of objections to recommendations; other flagged opinions discussed different decisions named Mathews, including Mathews v. Eldridge.

Every treatment on this page is written from the citing opinion itself, with a verbatim quote, never copied from a commercial citator. A citation flagged by our screen but not shown here was read and found not to weaken this case.

8,788 later cases cite Mathews v. Weber; 267 of those citations sat close to treatment language and were flagged for reading, and all of them have been read. Citations that did not sit near treatment language were not flagged and were not read one by one, so a court that weakened this case without using any of that language would not appear here.
