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 45 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The theory adopted in the new rules * * * has been that the `transaction' or `occurrence' is the subject matter of a claim, rather than the legal rights arising therefrom; additions to or subtractions from the central core of fact do not change this substantial identity * * *.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“The first doctrine * * * in order to `protect from delay the progress of the trial,' bars an appeal from an order, made in the course of a suit not yet concluded, when the appeal will lead to `the piecemeal disposition of what for practical purposes is a single controversy,' and will result in `separate reviews of the component elements in a unified cause.' The second doctrine * * * again in order to discourage delays, permits an immediate appeal from an order dismissing one of two distinct claims `arising out of wholly separate and distinct transactions.'”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority“the Rule is intended to make decisive the district judge's determination of finality only if the right of appeal would have been doubtful before the Rule went into operation.”
