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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “Section 2, sub. a (7), dealing with the jurisdiction of courts of bankrupt cy, contains the specific qualification “except as herein otherwise provided.” Appellant ignores this qualification in his argument. In Williams v. Austrian, 331 U.S. 642 , [644, 67 S.Ct. 1443 , 91 L.Ed. 1718 ], the Supreme Court held that this exception had reference to Section 23 of the Bankruptcy Act hereinabove discussed. This question is well analyzed and discussed in In re Houston Seed Co., 122 F.Supp. 340 , D.C.Ala., to which reference is made. We are of the opinion that Section 2, sub. a(7) of the Bankruptcy Act is not applicable to the issue presently before us. In re Pennington, 339 F.2d at 584-585 .”
