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 25 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““* * * While the evidence on appellant’s side is strong, the issue was not directly focused upon by * * * the court below. We prefer not to resolve issues of fact on appeal where the district court has not fully considered them. We therefore reverse appellant’s conviction and remand the case to the district court. On this record the government may seem to have little chance of overcoming [defendant’s] evidence, but that is a matter for prosecutorial evaluation of other evidence.” 3”
