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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"The prescription provided in Article 853 LSA-C.C. is not applicable unless the boundary sought to be corrected has been previously fixed in compliance with the formalities prescribed by law including a survey as required by Article 833 LSA-C.C. Owens v. T. Miller & Sons Building Supply Company, La.App., 101 So.2d 773 . In the instant case the boundary fixed by the agreement of November, 1945, was not predicated upon a survey but merely the agreement of the owners of the adjoining estates. The petition in the case at bar does not seek to correct or rectify an alleged error in a survey made incident to a prior boundary agreement, but rather attempts to re-establish a boundary once fixed but reputedly eradicated. It follows, therefore, that defendant's plea of ten years prescription is without merit and is hereby overruled."”
