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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““This matter is before the Court on the prisoner’s motion to vacate sentence, motion to produce petitioner in court, motion to be a witness in his own behalf, motion for leave to subpoena witnesses, and motion for speedy trial. “The motion to vacate sentence and the files and records of the case, conclusively show that the prisoner is entitled to no relief, and said motion is denied. “The motion to vacate sentence being denied, the remaining motions are, also, denied. “This prisoner previously filed a motion for leave to withdraw his plea of guilty and enter a plea of not guilty, and a motion for new trial based on newly discovered evidence. Those motions, were, on Nov. 4, 1952, denied by this court for reasons fully set forth by the Court at that time. The prisoner appealed from the rulings on those motions, and the matter is now pending before the Court of Appeals for this Circuit.””
