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.
“Where the principal clothes an agent with apparent authority to perform certain acts, and a third person who has no knowledge of or reason to believe that there are limitations on that authority deals with the agent, then the principal is estopped from setting aside the acts of the agent which are within his apparent authority, although beyond the actual power delegated to him. See LSA-C.C. art. 3000; Goldman v. Greater Louisiana Corporation, 126 So.2d 771 (La.App. 4th Cir.1961); James v. Judice, 140 So.2d 169 (La.App. 3d Cir.1962); International Union of Operating Engineers, Hoisting & Portable Local 406 v. Guy Scroggins, Inc., 168 So.2d 724 (La.App. 3d Cir.1964, Writ Refused); Fidelity Credit Company v. Bradford, 177 So.2d 635 (La.App. 3d Cir. 1965); Morton v.
