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.
“In order to deny compensation under Section 3 of the Act, more is needed than mere evidence of an arrest for a crime.

(Emphasis in original.)”
