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 42 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(1) A likelihood that the petitioner will prevail on the merits of the appeal; (2) Irreparable injury to the petitioner unless the stay is granted; (3) No substantial harm to other interested persons; and (4) No harm to the public interest.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““Without prematurely evaluating the merits of petitioner’s ease, the likelihood that petitioner will prevail is somewhat lessened by the narrow range afforded this Court in reviewing military habeas corpus matters. See Burns v. Wilson, 346 U.S. 137 , 142, 73 S.Ct. 1045 , 97 L.Ed. 1508 (1953); Gorko v. Commanding Officer, 314 F.2d 858 , 859 (10th Cir. 1963). Furthermore, respondent urges that petitioner has failed to exhaust his Military Administrative remedies by failing to petition the Board for Correction of Military Records. The District Court was also of this opinion. We note, without prejudice to petitioner’s future arguments, that respondents’ contentions have at least an appearance of correctness. See McCurdy v. Zuckert, 359 F.2d 491 (1966).””
