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 18 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It would be a narrow construefioii of sections 57 and 57n which would not regard a claim so presented and litigated in a bankrupt proceeding as ‘proven’ within the limitation of the section. A claim ‘proven’ within the year is amendable after the lapse of the year, and the court below probably regarded her petition as a ‘statement under oath, in writing, signed by a creditor, setting forth the claim,’ etc., and therefore subject to amendment, to comply with the further formalities of section 57. In this the court did not err.””
