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 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “As the Supreme Court said in The Apollon, 22 U.S. (9 Wheat.) 362, 378 [6 L.Ed. Ill] (1824), “demurrage is merely an allowance or compensation for the delay or detention of a vessel”. Accord, Continental Grain Co. v. Armour Fertilizer Works, 22 F.Supp. 49, 54 (S.D.N.Y.1938). Thus, the most logical interpretation of the “no demurrage” clause is that it precludes liability for detention damages.”
