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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “The celery segment of the agricultural industry in Florida is authorized to be accomplished, not by regulating the quantity of celery which may be produced, i. e., grown, but rather by controlling the quantity which may be marketed, i. e. placed in intrastate commerce, in the state in any prescribed period. This control may be exercised in one or more of three ways. First, the marketing order may prescribe the number of crates that each producer or grower may harvest and sell to or have sold by a handler. Second, it may prescribe the number of crates that each handler may buy from or handle for the producers. Third, it may prescribe the number of crates that each handler may sell, distribute, or handle in intrastate commerce, i. e., place in the “primary channel of trade.” Ibid, p. 723.”

  2. “It is inescapable that the effect of the marketing order is to draw an unjust and discriminatory distinction between those who were producers during the representative period and those who were not. Such a classification, for which we can find no justification in any legitimate public policy, amounts to an arbitrary exercise of the state’s police power so as to constitute a taking of property without due process of law and a denial of equal protection of the law. So viewed, the marketing order is violative of Sections 1 and 12, Declaration of Rights, Florida Constitution and the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.”

  3. “the more basic question of whether the state, in the exercise of the police power, may or may not regulate the quantity of celery which may be sold by or handled for producers . . . .”
