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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Attention has been sharply called to this rule (Rule 11, C. C. A., Eighth Circuit [91 Fed. vi, 32 C. C. A. lxxxviii]) and the announcement has been plainly made that .it would be enforced, although in the earlier cases the errors assigned were carefully examined, that no injustice might result from an unexpected application of the rule [citing cases]. But in the later cases the rule has been steadily and uniformly enforced' [citing cases]. * * * The assignment of errors in this case was not filed until seven days after the allowance of the appeal, and the appeal must be dismissed under rule 11.””
