This decision was vacated (set aside), by a higher court or by the same court on rehearing, so it has no force as precedent. The history below says what replaced it. The Supreme Court vacated the 2004 en banc judgment in In re Abdur'Rahman. All 28 flagged citations have been read.
More on how this was screened

On remand, the Sixth Circuit again treated Abdur'Rahman's filing as a Rule 60(b) motion but dismissed it as untimely in Abdur'Rahman v. Bell, 493 F.3d 738 (6th Cir. 2007). The later opinions reviewed here did not independently treat the 2004 judgment adversely; most reported its treatment of McQueen v. Scroggy or its vacatur, while others continued to cite its reasoning.

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.

28 later cases cite In re Abdur'Rahman; 28 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.
