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 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““That no payment shall be made to any person furnishing information in any case wherein judicial proceedings shall have been instituted, unless his claim to compensation shall have been established to the satisfaction of the court or judge having cognizance of such proceedings, and the value of his services duly certified by said court or judge for the information of the Secretary of the Treasury.””
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. In re Ghazal““give no specific interest in the fund to the informer, even after payment of the money into the treasury. As the petitioner’s right must be derived wholly through -the act of 1874, there is nothing remaining to the informer analogous to a right in rem, but only a personal claim against the government to a reasonable compensation.””
