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 18 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The Examiner properly refused to redeclare the interference. It is not necessary to decide' how long after the time fixed by rule 109' applicant could have presented other claims, with the request to have them made part of the issue of the interference; but certainly, if such action was desired, it should have been taken while the interference was pending, in order that the question of the admissibility of these claims could have been ruled on inter partes, and applicant cannot now be allowed these claims.””
