The confirmed treatment is listed below. The Supreme Court later described O'Malley as having overruled Miles in United States v. Hatter. A Delaware court separately chose how to interpret its own constitution, as noted below.
15 later cases cite Miles v. Graham; 15 of those citations sat close to treatment language and were flagged for reading, and all of them have been read. Citations that did not sit near treatment language were not flagged and were not read one by one, so a court that weakened this case without using any of that language would not appear here.
