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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“By becoming a party to the Loretz [Section 22] Quotation, appellee must be considered to be within the meaning of the Section 322 phrase “common carrier subject to the Interstate Commerce Act.” Appellee, having voluntarily become bound as a carrier “subject to the Interstate Commerce Act,” cannot now claim it is not so bound. We hold he has waived any claim he is excluded under Section 322.”
