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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“In accordance with the foregoing, it is hereupon ordered that said prayer of Hon. Nathan Mayo, as Commissioner of Agriculture of the State of Florida, contained in his answer to the rule of the referee to show cause, should be and is hereby sustained and granted, and it is hereupon determined and ordered that the proceeds of said surety bond now held in the possession of the said Commissioner of Agriculture was not a part of the estate of the bankrupt at the time of the adjudication of bankruptcy and hence should not be turned over and delivered by the Commissioner to the trustee; and it is further hereupon ordered that the rule to show cause of the referee should be, and same is here now, discharged, and the motion of the trustee in bankruptcy is denied and dismissed, and the said Commissioner released herefrom with leave and permission to proceed to the further execution of his duties under the said State law with respect to the funds in controversy.”
