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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is now well settled that in order to establish venue under sub-division 4 of Article 1995, the following facts must be alleged and proved: “1. There must be two or more defendants. “2. One or more of the defendants must reside in the county in which the suit is filed. “3. One or more of the defendants must reside in another county. “4. There must be a proper join-der; that is, those joined as defendants must all be proper parties to the suit. “5. There must have been a cause of action alleged against both the resident and non-resident defendants. “6. There must be proof of a valid cause of action against the resident defendant.””
