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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Plaintiff next contends that 5 C.F.R. § 722.305 (c)(1), which specifically denies the Civil Service Commission the authority to subpoena witnesses in connection with a hearing in these cases, is ultra vires and violates due process. . . . ‘There is nothing unfair in such a procedure’ [citing] Cohen v. Ryder [ 258 F.Supp. 693 (E. L.Pa.), aff’d on opinion below, 373 F. 2d 530 (3d Cir. 1967)]. No case has been cited holding that this lack of subpoena power denies due process, and we have found none.” DeLong v. Hampton, 422 F.2d 21, 24-25 (3d Cir. 1970).”
