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.

  1. “* * * appellants made no reference to it in the reasons of appeal stated in the appeal to us. Notwithstanding this omission, however, appellee has raised and argued the question before us, and for reasons hereinafter stated, we think it is involved and should be decided. 85 * * * * * * 86 "[3] As has been stated, the question of originality was not referred to in the reasons of appeal stated in the appeal to us, nor was it discussed at any length in appellants' brief before us in this case. * * * Appellee, however, has raised the question and discussed it elaborately. It is a question ancillary to priority and appellee has the right to raise it and have it determined. " [My emphasis.] 87 The court then proceeded to decide the case on that sole ground and did not consider "other questions raised in the reasons of appeal.”
