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 32 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 , a federal court's power to review a state conviction is limited. Habeas review is available only where errors of a constitutional magnitude have occurred. As support for his habeas claim, [petitioner] relies on the Missouri Supreme Court's criticism of the practice of adopting one party's suggested findings of law or fact. However, the court's disapproval of this practice cannot convert [petitioner]'s challenge to a proceeding collateral to his detention into a constitutional challenge of the detention itself.”
