3 canonical passages across 3 cases, quoted by 41 opinions in total. These passages cluster together because the same opinions keep quoting them side by side: they state parts of one doctrine. The anchor passage is from Spevack v. Klein.
| # | Case | Flag | Canonical passage | Citers |

| 1 | Spevack v. Klein Anchor | green | “the imposition of any sanction which makes assertion of the fifth amendment privilege 'costly.” | 26 |
| 2 | Serafino v. Hasbro, Inc. | green | “one party's assertion of his constitutional right should not obliterate another party's right to a fair proceeding” | 12 |
| 3 | Ed McMullen v. Bay Ship Management | green | “it is inconceivable that by exercising the constitutional right to bring or defend an action a person waives his or her constitutional right not to be a witness against himself or herself, and no case has so held.” | 3 |
A red or yellow flag on a member means the underlying case has negative treatment: for those, check the case page before relying on the passage.
