Your example was of "citation omitted" -- NOT, as you had originally claimed, "withheld". Except for one quotation from the govt's brief (which is available through many law libaries, some publishers and internet services), these instances of "citation omitted" were also used in quotations from earlier court decisions whose own citations were clearly provided so someone with sufficient curiousity could look up the original quotation with all of its embedded citations.
