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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Originally it was a writ directed to an officer commanding him to desist from enforcing the execution of another writ, which he was about to execute.... In modern times the term is often used synonymously with a stay of proceedings and is employed to designate the effect of an act or proceeding which of itself suspends the enforcement of a judgment. There can be no supersedeas where plaintiff in error announces he cannot furnish bond therefor.””
