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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““An interlocutory decree, entered pro confesso, finding the patent valid,, awarding an injunction, and referring the case to a master to take an account of profits and damages, is not definitive. No appeal lies from it, and it is-still in the control of the court. “In a prior suit between the same parties, an interlocutory decree, pro confesso, awarding an injunction and a reference to a master, had been entered,, and a release of profits and damages signed. In a subsequent suit between, the same parties, exceptions setting up this decree as an estoppel were overruled, in the absence of an express authority on the question; and held that,, where there is a doubt in such a case, it ought to be resolved against 'the party urging the estoppel.””
