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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “As Louisiana has a right to determine when a foreign judgment shall become prescribed and no longer executory within its limits, it follows that it alone can determine under what circumstances such prescription may be avoided. And that is what Louisiana has done by Rev.Civ. Code, art. 3547 . It has there provided that all judgments, domestic or foreign, shall be prescribed in ten years from the time of rendition, and shall not thereafter be executory in this state unless revived contradictorily with the party against whom one proposes to use it.”
