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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““There is no difficulty, when reading the California eases, in understanding that a sentence which runs consecutively is one which ‘shall commence at the termination of the first term of imprisonment to which he has been sentenced, or at the termination of the second or subsequent term of imprisonment to which he has been sentenced, as the case may be.’ There is no merit in defendant’s contention.” (Cf. Rice v. United States, 7 F.2d 319 ; Boyd v. Archer, 42 F.2d 43 .)”
