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

  1. “As the Supreme Court has said in another context: “It follows, of course, that once the federal claim has been fairly presented to the state courts, the exhaustion requirement is satisfied.” Picard v. Connor, 404 U.S. 270, 275 , 92 S.Ct. 509, 512 [ 30 L.Ed.2d 438 ] (1971). If the petition is denied on the merits, no state process will be interrupted. If the petition is meritorious, the “need to preserve the writ of habeas corpus as a ‘swift and imperative remedy in all cases of illegal restraint or confinement’ ” comes into full play, and in the normal ease will outweigh the interests of federalism opposing it.”
