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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The Commissioners, three in number, are its governing officers, and in that capacity have succeeded to the control over the streets and highways that was once vested in the Board of Public Works under the preceding municipal government. * * * They are, by existing laws, as we have seen, invested with the control and regulation of the public streets of the city of Washington, with certain exceptions in which the street in question is not included: In addition to this, a recent act of Congress, enacted apparently to remedy an omission pointed out in the case of District of Columbia v. Libbey, 9 App. D. C. 321 , expressly transfers to and vests in the Commissioners the jurisdiction and control of the street parking in the streets and avenues. 30 Stat. 570 .””
