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 47 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Even if, as Gonzales claims, he was illegally arrested in the Panama Canal Zone and brought to the United States, this is not grounds for requiring that the trial court release and discharge him without trial. E. g., Frisbie v. Collins, 342 U.S. 519, 522 , 72 S. Ct. 509, 511 , 96 L. Ed. 541 , 545 (1952) (‘This Court has never departed from the rule . . . that the power of a court to try a person for crime is not impaired by the fact that he has been brought within the court’s jurisdiction by reason of a “forcible abduction.” ’); Stamphill v. Johnston, 136 F. 2d 291, 292 (9th Cir.) cert. denied, 320 U.S. 766 , 64 S. Ct. 70 , 88 L. Ed. 457 (1943) (‘The personal presence of a defendant before a District Court gives that court complete jurisdiction over him, regardless of how his presence was secured, whether by premature arrest. . . wrongful seizure beyond the territorial jurisdiction of the court . . . false arrest ... or extradition arising out of an offense other than the one for which he is being tried.’); United States ex rel. Voigt v. Toombs, 67 F. 2d 744 (5th Cir. 1933), petition for cert. dismissed, 291 U.S. 686 , 54 S. Ct. 442 , 78 L. Ed. 1072 (1934) (‘It is well settled in the courts of the United States that jurisdiction once acquired in a criminal case is not impaired by the manner in which the accused is brought before the court.’).””
