““Evidence which is of greater weight or more convincing than the evidence which is offered in opposition to it; that is, evidence which as a whole shows that the fact sought to be proved is more probable than not. Braud v. Kinchen, La.App., 310 So.2d 657, 659 .””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““The plaintiff’s proof may be made not only by direct evidence, but may be established by circumstantial evidence. However, a plaintiff relying upon circumstantial evidence is required to produce evidence which excludes, with a fair amount of certainty, every other reasonable hypothesis but the one relied on. Bickham v. Wax Lumber Company, La.App., 84 So.2d 60, 62 (1 Cir.1955); see also Gassiott v. Gordey, [ 182 So.2d 170 (La.App. 3rd Cir.1966)].””
