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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"The right to bring a direct action is one conferred by Louisiana statutory law. Insurance contracts prohibiting the direct action contravene our statute and for that reason the policy provision prohibiting a direct action will not be recognized in our courts. But in the instant case the Insurance Commissioner's regulation as to how foreign insurers write business in this state is not tantamount to a statutory prohibition against including such an exclusionary provision in a policy. It is an established principle of our jurisprudence that the insurer and the insured may agree to limit liability in any manner, in the absence of a statutory provision to the contrary." (Citations omitted) (emphasis ours)”
