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 42 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"[W]hiplash awards fall into approximately three main groups: "(1) Awards in excess of $5000 are common for those producing permanent disability or severe pain of prolonged duration. See, e. g.: Self v. Johnson, La.App. 3 Cir., 124 So.2d 324 ($9,237.50); Dillon v. Pope, La.App. 1 Cir., 110 So.2d 229 ($5,000); Bartholomaus v. H. G.

"(2) Awards in the area of $2500-$3500 are common for those producing severe initial pain and with however only a short period of residual discomfort, or for those producing less severe pain but a relatively long period (e. g., a year or two) of residual discomfort or disability. See, e. g.: Ford v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., La.App. 2 Cir., 139 So.2d 798 ($3,000); Hilton v. Bankers Fire and Marine Ins. Co., La. App. 3 Cir., 134 So.2d 82 ($3,000); Landry v.

Indemnity Co., La.App. 2 Cir., 116 So. 2d 712 ($3,000). "(3) Awards in lower amounts for whiplash injuries producing moderate or slight pain, which are cured without residual in a matter of weeks [months]. Doyle v. McMahon, La.App. 4 Cir., 136 So.2d 89 ($2,000); Townsend v. Maniscalco, La.App. 2 Cir., 128 So.2d 906 ($1,500); Elder v. Travelers [Indemnity] Ins. Co., La.App. 1 Cir., 125 So. 2d”
