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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“when th[e] motion [for reconsideration] came to be heard, the [transferor court] had already lost jurisdiction of the action because the transfer was then complete _' If the plaintiff had moved seasonably for a stay, and the stay had been denied, his motion might conceivably have preserved his right, but he did not do so. Hence it follows, that no relief remained open to him in the [transferor court].”
