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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ ‘The distinction recognized in our jurisprudence between the sale of a lease, or the unexpired term thereof, and the sale of the right of occupancy is that the purchaser of a lease or the unexpired term thereof becomes obligated to pay the rent stipulated in the lease, while the purchaser of a mere right of occupancy does not take on himself or assume the obligation to pay rent. See Villavaso, et al v. Their Creditors, 48 La.Ann. 946 , 20 So.2d 167 . This distinction is also noticed in Walker v. Dohan, 39 La.Ann. 743 , 2 So. 381 ; Bartels and Dana v. Their Creditors, et al, 11 La. Ann. 433 ; Succession of Howard, 2 Orleans App. 163; Marfese v. Nelson, et al, 10 Orleans App. 288.’”
