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

1. ““1. The remedy provided by the Railway Labor Act by submission of dispute to the adjustment board is not exclusive, but once a dispute is submitted to the board an award made is final except in so far as it contains a money award. Railway Labor Act, § 3(m), 45 U.S.C.A. § 153 (m). “2. Under provision of Railway Labor Act that award of adjustment board is final and binding upon both parties to dispute except in the case of a money award, where pullman porter who had been dismissed submitted dispute to adjustment board which upheld dismissal and no money award was contained in award, the award of the adjustment board was ‘final’ precluding a subsequent inquiry into the same question by the court. Railway Labor Act, § 3(m), 45 U.S.C.A. § 153 (m).””

2. “-“The Railway Labor Act, § 3, subd. l(m), 45 U.S.C.A. § 153 , subd. l(m), in part, provides that awards of the several divisions of the Adjustment Board ‘shall be final and binding upon both parties to the dispute, except insofar as they shall contain a money award.’ It would seem that this language is clear and susceptible only of one construction, namely, that in cases other than where a money award is made the judgment of the Board is final and binding upon the parties thereto. This is the construction which has been placed upon the provisions of the act by the courts which have considered this question.””
