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 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The migrants living in Joseph Hassle’s labor camps are tenants within the meaning of Michigan law. It is commonly understood that a portion of the migrant’s compensation for his work is his housing. The “Clearance Order” by which the grower secures his labor force states that housing is provided and that “rent is free.” The crew leader then uses the rent-free aspect to muster up the necessary crew, and the “free rent” dwellings are one justification for the low wage paid migrant laborers. The migrant, therefore, pays the grower for the housing provided.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage““The freedoms of religion, speech, press and assembly guaranteed by the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution are operative throughout the length and the breadth of the land. They do not become suspended on the threshold of an agricultural labor camp. The camp is not a private island or an enclave existing without the full breadth and vitality of federal constitutional and statutory protection.” Opinions of the Attorney General of Michigan, # 4727, April 13, 1971.”
