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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The foregoing treaty extends any limitation which might exist upon the jurisdiction of the court to proceed against offending vessels which may be subject to forfeiture for violations of our laws ‘prohibiting the importation of alcoholic beverages’ to such eases as may come within the terms of the treaty, and, I think, also implies as an alternative rule of treaty-made law that vessels shall not be proceeded against for violation of such laws when seizure was made beyond the distance from our coast prescribed in the treaty. In other words, the treaty completely deals with the extreme right of seizure upon which initial jurisdiction of the cause of forfeiture must depend,””
