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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ * * * It is clear that the act contemplates an agreement between the employer and the employee as the basis of that ‘consent’ which must be granted by the court before commutation may be ordered. #####* “The act permits commutation only when the court consents. The use of the word ‘consent’ implies the precedent presentation of an agreed stipulation or order. It negatives the idea of arbitrary or initiatory action on the part of the court. And the language of the last sentence of the section, ‘no settlement or compromise shall be made except, etc.,’ supports this construction, clearly implying that the commutation thus provided for shall be made pursuant only to a ‘settlement or compromise,’ terms inconsistent with eos parte or forcible procedure.””
