More on how this was screened
Later Supreme Court opinions expressly described King & Boozer as overruling Panhandle. All 23 flagged citations have been read. The confirmed treatment is listed below.
23 later cases cite Panhandle Oil Co. v. Mississippi ex rel. Knox; 23 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.
