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.

  1. ““It is to be remarked that, in the action of ejectment, the court that renders the judgment exercises a species of equitable jurisdiction over the writ of possession, recalling it if justice requires, and sometimes, after it has been executed, awarding a writ of restitution. Coleman v. Henderson, 2 Scam. 251 ; Ex parte Reynolds, 1 Caines (N. Y.) 500; Jackson v. Hasbrouc, 5 J. R. 366; Doe ex dem. Troughton v. Roe, 4 Burr. 1996.””
