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.
““[4] It is a fundamental rule of appellate review that a factual determination of a trial court will not be disturbed on appeal in the absence of manifest error. Thomas v. Morgan City Canning Co., La.App., 69 So.2d 548 ; Bickham Motors, Inc. v. Bickham, La.App., 104 So.2d 442 . The rule is of special application when the testimony is conflicting and the trial court must evaluate the credibility of witnesses in determining wherein lies the truth. Fabre v. Grain Dealers Mutual Insurance Co., La.App., 99 So.2d 380 ; Hebert v. Chargois, La.App., 106 So.2d 15 . * * *.””
