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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. ““We reject all parties claims to attorney’s fees, commissions, and costs, sought under the terms of the contract arising from failure of compliance with its terms.” “This agreement by its very terms becomes null and void when there is no fulfillment of the suspensive condition. When a contract is null and void, it is as if the agreement was not written. The parties revert to their respective positions before they signed the agreement.” Garlete v. Rodriguez, 126 So.2d 182 (La.App. 4th Cir. 1961). “There can be no failure of compliance with an agreement that has become null and void, nor can any rights flow from such an agreement.” Richmond v. Krushevski, 243 La. 777 , 147 So.2d 212 (1962).”
