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.
““Willful nonsupport of minor children by their father is a continuing offense. State v. Morel, 146 La. 6 , 83 So. 318 . . . . The offense is committed at the place where the father may be found within the state, and not at the place of residence of the children. State v. Blache, 175 La. 718 , 144 So. 430 . . . . “Defendant’s duty to support his minor children accompanied him wherever he went. . . . “The offense of nonsupport of children is not dependent upon the commission of any affirmative act, but on the omission of the plainest natural duty. Necessarily, then, the venue of the offense depends on wherever the omission to perform the duty occurs, which in defendant’s case was in Monroe, La., during the period elapsing between September 1,1934, and April 15,1935. Defendant owed no such duty elsewhere.””
