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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The title so vested in the State is impeachable only on proof that the taxes, for the non-payment of which the lands were forfeited, had been duly paid before the return of the list to the Parish Recorder. This proof was not made. These forfeitures alone, unless annulled by the State itself, are sufficient to defeat appellants’ claim in this action. * * * ” Pittman v. Gulf Refining Co., 5 Cir., 141 F.2d 478, 480 .”
