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.

1. ““In habeas corpus proceedings for the discharge of a person held under an extradition warrant issued by the Governor of a state, the federal courts will not consider or pass upon any matters of defense to the indictment upon which extradition is based, nor a charge that the requisition proceedings are instigated by malice, and intended to annoy or harass the petitioner. Whether the charge is legally and sufficiently laid in the indictment is a judicial question to be decided by the courts of the state in which the crime was committed, and not by the executive authority of a state upon whom the demand was made.””
