| # | Case | Flag | Canonical passage | Citers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Fan v. Nag Anchor | green | “only the holdings, as opposed to the dicta” | 14 |
| 2 | Fan v. Nag | green | “when reviewing state criminal convictions on collateral review, federal judges are required to afford state courts due respect by overturning their decisions only when there could be no reasonable dispute that they were wrong.” | 13 |
| 3 | United States v. William Harris | green | “is not to be lightly overturned on the basis of a prosecutor's comments standing alone, for the statements or conduct must be viewed in context; only by so doing can it be determined whether the prosecutor's conduct affected the fairness of the trial.” | 7 |
A red or yellow flag on a member means the underlying case has negative treatment: for those, check the case page before relying on the passage.
