More on how this was screened

Virginia, Florida, and Alabama kept their own preclusion rules rather than adopting Parklane’s federal rule, as the state-law entries below explain.

The treatments below are confirmed; unread citations could still change the overall status.
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.

4,227 later cases cite Parklane Hosiery Co. v. Shore; 87 of those citations sat close to treatment language and were flagged for reading; the progress bar above tracks how many have been read so far. 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.

Treatments

Criticized

  • The court criticized Parklane's suggestion that defensive estoppel encourages property plaintiffs to join all potential challengers, reasoning that challengers cannot be sued before violating the property right.

    Shaid v. Consolidated Edison Co. of New York, Inc. · New York Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department · filed

    Contrary to the Parklane Hosiery Co. v Shore (supra) dictum, however, this efficiency cannot encourage plaintiff in a property action to join all potential challengers to his property right in one action for the simple reason that they cannot be made defendants until they have violated his purported right.
