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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Exactly what [section 1252(g) ] means was a matter of much legal debate prior to the Supreme Court’s decision in Reno v. American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. While the holding in American-Arab seems clear enough, the controversy over section 1252(g) continues to boil. See Mustata v. U.S. Department of Justice, 179 F.3d 1017 (6th Cir.1999) (1252(g) does not eliminate a district court’s jurisdiction to hear an underlying constitutional claim); Mapoy v. Carroll, 185 F.3d 224 (4th Cir.1999) (1252(g) divests district courts of jurisdiction to review refusals to grant a suspension of deportation); Alvidres-Reyes v. Reno, 180 F.3d 199 (5th Cir.1999) (same); Singh v. Reno, 182 F.3d 504 (7th Cir.1999) (same); Richardson v. Reno, 180 F.3d 1311 (11th Cir.1999) (by virtue of 1252(b)(9) a challenge to a final order of removal may be brought only in the court of appeals, IIRIRA precludes 2241 jurisdiction). Compare Goncalves, 144 F.3d at 133 (pre-Arab-American decision holding that district courts retain 2241 jurisdiction to hear constitutional and some statutory claims).”
