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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[i]t would be 'an abuse of discretion ... to override a State's deliberate waiver of a limitations defense.' " Id. at 472-73 , 132 S.Ct. 1826 (quoting Day , 547 U.S. at 202 , 126 S.Ct. 1675 ). In other words, "a court of appeals is entitled to deny collateral relief on a procedural ground that the prosecutor has forfeited by overlooking it, but not on a ground that the prosecutor has waived.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“is irrelevant, and a mistake in reaching a decision to withhold a known defense does not make that decision less a waiver”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“power to decide an appeal on a forfeited ground should be used only in exceptional cases.”
