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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““it was held that the cash deposit in lieu of bail would be conclusively presumed to be the money of the defendant and treated accordingly. This rule seems to be supported by the weight of authority (citing cases) ‘Where the law permits deposit of money or its equivalent as security for bail, as does Rev.St. § 1014 ( 18 U.S.C.A. § 591 ), bail money deposited for defendant by third person becomes defendant’s money for all purposes of deposit, especially when depositor is a stranger to record; conclusive presumption being that deposit is personal one of defendant and recoverable only by him, not by his surety.’ ””
