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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In a case such as this, when a parolee is arrested for a felony, he could simply be allowed to remain in jail for ten days without any attempt by the Commission to hold a hearing and then be released pursuant to Section 949.11, only to be imprisoned again under Section 949.22 for the same alleged parole violation while the Commission prepares to hold its hearing "as soon as practicable."”
