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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The amendments to § 1391 required the court in VE Holding to decide whether Congress sought to change the established substance of § 1400(b) by requiring the specific patent venue provision to be read in conjunction with the general venue prorision. The court emphasized two things: (1) the statutory language added in 1988 to § 1391(c), “[f]or purposes of venue under this chapter,” referred clearly to §§ 1391-1412 (and, necessarily, § 1400(b)), and thus amounted to the “exact and classic language of incorporation” that was missing in the 1948 version of § 1391(c) construed in Fourco; and (2) the drafters of the amendment were well aware of the issue of incorporation and so the obvious meaning of the words they chose should be respected. [VE Holding ] at 1579, 1582.”
