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 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Except as otherwise provided by law, no recovery shall be had for any infringement committed more than six years prior to the filing of the complaint or counterclaim for infringement in the action. In the case of claims against the United States Government for use of a patented invention, the period before bringing suit, up to six years, between the date of receipt of a written claim for compensation by the department or agency of the Government having authority to settle such claim, and the date of mailing by the Government of a notice to the claimant that his claim has been denied shall not be counted as part of the period referred to in the preceding paragraph.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“Insofar ... as the awards against the private infringer, and against the government taker, both would apply to the same unauthorized, unlicensed uses of a patented invention, and are both nonpunitive, and both undertake only to assess reasonable and entire compensation for the interest taken or infringed, the results ought to be similar, just as the awards in many land taking eases would have been no more or less if they had been trespass cases.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority“should be applied (from now on) to just compensation cases, without need of proof in the individual instance, unless and until it is affirmatively demonstrated that under the theory of the Pitcairn opinion the rate for years after 1975 should differ from [that rate].”
